Just acquired a terraced house in Goodrich , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my ownership? My Goodrich conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be certain the land registry aspects are addressed.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Goodrich registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can adjust depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd parties. At present approximately three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within two weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Registration takes place after the buyer has moved in to the property thus 'speed' is not usually top priority yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers can contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
