I acquired my apartment on 10 February and the transaction details is yet to be registered. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Garston advises it would be dealt with in less than a month. Are transfers in Garston uniquely lengthy to register?
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Garston registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry communicate with any interested parties. At present approximately three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Registration is effected after the buyer is living at the premises therefore 'speed' is not always an essential issue but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor can contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I'm purchasing my first flat in Garston with the aid of help to buy. The builders would not budge the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The estate agent advised me not to tell my conveyancer about this extras as it could jeopardize my mortgage with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in Garston I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Garston in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
If you need a mortgage that many years may be problematic. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
One month into a sale of a flat in Garston. Conveyancing lawyers are doing their job but we have been asked to pay a fortune from the freeholder. To date we have forked out £268 for a leasehold management pack and then another £134.40 for supplemental questions raised by the buyers lawyer.
You will not have any say over the level of the bill for this information but the average fee for the information for Garston leasehold property is £355. For Garston conveyancing deals it is conventional for the seller to pay for these costs. The landlord or their agents are not duty bound to answer these questions most will agree to do so - albeit often at exorbitant prices where the fees bear little relation to the work involved. Unfortunately there is no statute that requires set fees for administrative tasks. There is no statutory time frame by which they are duty bound to supply the information.
