Have completed on a a detached house in Crews Hill , how long should it take for the Land Registry to register my ownership? My Crews Hill conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be sure the registration formalities are dealt with.
As far as conveyancing in Crews Hill is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any 3rd parties. As of today roughly 80% of such applications are completed within two weeks but occasionally there can be longer delays. Historically registration is effected after the purchaser has moved in to the property thus post completion formalities is not usually an essential issue but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
