As far as conveyancing in Westbury On Trym is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry communicate with any 3rd parties. As of today approximately 80% of submission are fully addressed within 12 days but occasionally there can be longer delays. Historically registration takes place after the new owner is living at the premises so post completion formalities is not usually top priority yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

There is not much else in Westbury On Trym for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage that many years will be problematic. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
