As someone not used to conveyancing in Shifnal what’s the number one tip you can impart for the ownership transfer in Shifnal
Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Shifnal or throughout Shropshire is often a confrontational process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there is lots of opportunity for friction between you and other parties involved in the home moving process. For instance, the seller, property agent and on occasion a lender. Choosing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Shifnal is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE person in the process whose responsibility is to act in your legal interests and to keep you safe.
Every so often a third party with a vested interest will try and sway you that it is in your interests to do things their way. For instance, the property agent may claim to be helping by suggesting your conveyancer is dragging his heels. Or your financial adviser may advise you to do take action that is against your solicitors guidance. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the home moving process.

I acquired my home on 13 July and my personal details is yet to be on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Shifnal said it should be concluded inside ten days. Are transfers in Shifnal particularly slow to register?
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Shifnal registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can adjust according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any interested persons or bodies. At present roughly three quarters of such applications are completed within two weeks but some can be subject to extensive delays. Historically registration occurs once the new owner is living at the property so registration formalities is not usually primary concern yet where 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 an expedited registration.
