I bought my home on 14 April and my personal details is not yet registered. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Towcester said it should be recorded inside ten days. Are transfers in Towcester uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Towcester is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can adjust subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry have to notify any third persons or bodies. As of today in the region of 80% of submission are completed within 12 days but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Historically registration takes place once the purchaser has moved in to the premises thus an expedited registration is not always primary concern but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I'm buying my first flat in Towcester with a loan from Britannia. The sellers refused to reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The sale representative advised me not disclose to my conveyancer about the side-deal as it may adversely affect my mortgage with Britannia. Should I keep quiet?.

Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Towcester may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
