I have given 8 weeks notice to my current landlord and must be out of my let out apartment in Belsize Park by the end of next month. Conveyancing on my purchase has just started. How realistic is it to complete in a couple of weeks as I wish to avoid having to move into short term accommodation?

All banks and building societies have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Team at head office.

After what seems like an age I have had an offer on a flat in Belsize Park accepted, the vendors do nevertheless have a dependent purchase. The owners have put an offer on a flat, however it’s not been accepted yet, and have viewings of other apartments in the pipeline. I have instructed a local conveyancing solicitor in Belsize Park. What should be my next step? At what point do I apply for the mortgage with Principality?
It is normal to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (mortgage application is approx £1k, then valuation, Belsize Park conveyancing search costs, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Principality approved list. Regarding the subsequent phase this very much depends on the specifics of your case, attraction to this property and on the state of the market. In a rising market some purchasers will apply for the mortgage with Principality and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they pay their lawyer to proceed with searches.
Have completed on a a detached house in Belsize Park , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my ownership? My Belsize Park conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain the land registry aspects are concluded.

Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry need to notify any interested parties.

Registration occurs after the purchaser has moved in to the property therefore 'speed' is not always an essential issue yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
