Just bought a detached house in Monmouthshire , how long should it take for the Land Registry to record my title? My Monmouthshire conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be certain that my purchase is registered.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Monmouthshire 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 if the Land registry have to notify any other persons or bodies. As of today approximately three quarters of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted delays. Historically registration takes place after the new owner has moved in to the premises therefore 'speed' is not typically an essential issue but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

I inherited a garden flat in Monmouthshire, conveyancing having been completed 10 years ago. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Similar flats in Monmouthshire with over 90 years remaining are worth £186,000. The ground rent is £55 invoiced annually. The lease finishes on 21st October 2078
You have 52 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £29,500 and £34,000 as well as professional fees.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more detailed due diligence. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other concerns that need to be taken into account and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
