Have purchased a a detached house in Heath , how long should it take for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing the transfer to my name? My Heath conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be sure the land registry aspects are dealt with.

As far as conveyancing in Heath is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ subject to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry communicate with any third persons or bodies. Currently in the region of 80% of submission are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Historically registration takes place once the new owner has moved in to the property thus post completion formalities is not always top priority yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

My husband and I are FTB’s - had an offer accepted, but the selling agent has warned us that the vendor will only go ahead if we instruct the agent's recommended solicitors as they need a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Heath

We suspect that the seller is unaware of this demand. Should the owner want ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the owners direct and explain that (a)you are genuine purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to appoint your own,trusted Heath conveyancing solicitors - as opposed tothe ones that will give the negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing targets demanded by head office.

My partner and I may need to let out our Heath 1st floor flat temporarily due to a new job. We instructed a Heath conveyancing practice in 2004 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to get any advice as to whether the lease prohibits the subletting of the flat. How do we find out?

Even though your last Heath conveyancing solicitor is no longer around you can check your lease to check if it allows you to sublet the premises. The accepted inference is that if the deeds are non-specific, subletting is permitted. Quite often there is a prerequisite that you are obliged to seek permission from your landlord or other appropriate person before subletting. The net result is that you cannot sublet in the absence of prior consent. The consent must not not be unreasonably turned down. If your lease prohibits you from subletting the property you will need to ask your landlord if they are willing to waive this restriction.
