I bought my flat on 7 July and the transaction details is not yet registered. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Welton expressed confidence that it will be concluded in less than a month. Are transfers in Welton uniquely lengthy to register?
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Welton registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry need to notify any interested persons or bodies.

Registration is effected once the new owner has moved in to the premises thus post completion formalities is not always an essential issue but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one round the corner in Welton I like with open areas and railway links nearby, however it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Welton suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
If you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
