There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Upton registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can adjust depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry need to notify any other persons or bodies. Currently approximately three quarters of submission are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Historically registration takes place after the purchaser is living at the property so 'speed' is not usually an essential issue but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I am looking for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Upton I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Upton in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.

I own a leasehold flat in Upton. Conveyancing and TSB mortgage went though with no issue. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the freehold. Attached was a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1995. The conveyancing practitioner in Upton who previously acted has long since retired. What should I do?
The first thing you should do is contact HMLR to be sure that the individual purporting to own the freehold is in fact the new freeholder. You do not need to incur the fees of a Upton conveyancing firm to do this as it can be done on-line for a few pound. Rest assured that in any event, even if this is the legitimate freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 the limitation period for recovery of ground rent is six years.
