Have completed on a a terraced house in Longfield , how long should it take for the Land Registry to record my ownership? My Longfield conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be sure that my name is registered.
As far as conveyancing in Longfield is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. 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 have to notify any other persons or bodies. Currently in the region of three quarters of submission are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Registration takes place once the new owner has moved in to the property thus 'speed' is not usually top priority but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer could speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
How does conveyancing in Longfield differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Longfield come to us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because builders in Longfield tend to acquire the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Longfield or who has acted in the same development.
