Have completed on a a terraced house in Rawdon and Yeadon , how long will it take for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my proprietorship? My Rawdon and Yeadon conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to check that my purchase is recorded.

As far as conveyancing in Rawdon and Yeadon is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary 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 submission are fully dealt with within 12 days but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Historically registration takes place after the purchaser is living at the property thus 'speed' is not typically top priority but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I'm buying a new build house in Rawdon and Yeadon with a mortgage from Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The estate agent suggested that I not disclose to my lawyer about the extras as it would put at risk my loan with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

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.

In the circumstances you refer to it seems prudent to apply to register in the names of the personal representative(s) as named in the probate and in their capacity as PRs. HMLR’s online guidance explains how to register for the first time and what is required re the deeds and forms. You would need to include and official copy of the probate as well and complete the form FR1 to refer to the PRs as the applicant.
