As far as conveyancing in Tintern is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry have to notify any other parties. At present approximately three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Registration takes place after the new owner is living at the premises thus an expedited registration is not typically primary concern yet 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.

In my capacity as executor for the will of my uncle I am selling a residence in Swansea but I am based in Tintern. My lawyer (who is 235 miles from mehas requested that I sign a statutory declaration ahead of completion. Could you suggest a conveyancing practitioner in Tintern who can attest this legal document for me?

strictly speaking you should not need to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or qualified solicitor will do regardless of whether they are located in Tintern

Developers have recommended to me a conveyancing practitioner and I've sought an estimate from them. They are nearly £300 cheaper than my preferred Tintern solicitor. Should I use them?

Developers often have panels of lawyers who expedite matters and who know the developer’s paperwork and solicitor. Plenty of developers offer an incentive to use their approved solicitor for this reason, any increased charges can be avoided and a builder won't recommend a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they want exchange in 28 days. A counter-argument for not opting for the recommended conveyancing practitioner is that they may prove unwilling to fight for your interests for fear of upsetting the housebuilder. Where you have concerns that this may be the situation you should remain with your local Tintern property lawyer.
