It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their conditions fairly frequently in recent years.

As far as conveyancing in Essington is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary subject to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry communicate with any other parties. At present in the region of 80% of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Historically registration is effected after the purchaser is living at the premises thus post completion formalities is not typically top priority yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
