There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Guiseley registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry communicate with any interested persons or bodies.

Registration is effected once the new owner has moved in to the premises so 'speed' is not always primary concern but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I'm buying a new build house in Guiseley with a loan from Bank of Scotland. The sellers would not move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead.

We're FTB’s - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent informed us that the owners will only issue a contract if we instruct their recommended lawyers as they need a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a high street solicitor used to conveyancing in Guiseley

Speak to the owners direct and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances arranged © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to instruct your own,trusted Guiseley conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will earn their negotiator at the agency a kickback or achieve conveyancing figures pre-set by head office.
Having checked my lease I have discovered that there are only Fifty years unexpired on my flat in Guiseley. I now wish to get lease extension but my freeholder is missing. What are my options?
On the basis that you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be extended by the Court. However, you will be required to demonstrate that you have done all that could be expected to locate the landlord. For most situations a specialist may be helpful to conduct investigations and prepare an expert document which can be used as evidence that the freeholder can not be located. It is advisable to get professional help from a conveyancer both on devolving into the landlord’s disappearance and the vesting order request to the County Court overseeing Guiseley.
