Just acquired a semi-detached house in Sunderland , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register the transfer to my name? My Sunderland conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be sure that my purchase is recorded.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Sunderland registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can differ according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. As of today approximately 80% of submission are fully dealt with within two weeks but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Registration occurs after the buyer has moved in to the property thus 'speed' is not typically top priority but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer should contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my 2 bed apartment in Sunderland. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, but I have just received a half-yearly service charge invoice – Do I pay up?
It best that you clear the maintenance contribution as usual given that all rents and service charges should be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
