Would the conveyancing lawyers that are recommend conduct auction conveyancing in Bayswater?

I got the keys to my flat on 5 October and the transaction details is not yet registered. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Bayswater said it should be recorded in a couple of weeks. Are titles in Bayswater particularly slow to register?
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Bayswater registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any third parties. As of today in the region of 80% of submission are completed within 12 days but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Historically registration is effected once the new owner is living at the premises therefore an expedited registration is not usually top priority but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer can speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
How does conveyancing in Bayswater differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Bayswater come to us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Bayswater tend to acquire the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Bayswater or who has acted in the same development.
Am I right to be concerned by third parties that I am dealing with are suggesting a national conveyancing firm rather than a High Street Bayswater conveyancing company?
As with many service providers, often referrals from family and friends can be most helpful. Nevertheless there are lots of parties with a keen interest in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, financial adviser and banks might all suggest lawyers to use. On occasion the solicitors might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but occasionally there exists a financial incentive behind the recommendation. You have the discretion to select your own conveyancer. You need to be aware that most mortgage providers specify a panel list of solicitors you must use for the lender aspect of your home move.
