Have purchased a a terraced house in Breaston , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register my proprietorship? My Breaston conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to check the post completion formalities are concluded.
As far as conveyancing in Breaston registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary depending on who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry need to notify any third persons or bodies. At present in the region of three quarters of submission are fully dealt with within 12 days but some can be subject to protracted delays. Historically registration is effected after the buyer is living at the premises thus an expedited registration is not usually top priority but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer must contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I own a garden flat in Breaston, conveyancing formalities finalised 1995. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Corresponding flats in Breaston with a long lease are worth £165,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 invoiced annually. The lease finishes on 21st October 50
With only 50 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to be between £36,100 and £41,800 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of detailed due diligence. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other concerns that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.
