Have purchased a a terraced house in Chirk , how long will it take for the Land Registry to record my ownership? My Chirk conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be sure the land registry aspects are concluded.

As far as conveyancing in Chirk registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry need to notify any 3rd persons or bodies. Currently roughly three quarters of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Historically registration takes place after the buyer is living at the premises therefore post completion formalities is not always top priority but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

On the basis that you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be lengthened by the Court. You will be obliged to prove that you or your lawyers have made all reasonable attempts to locate the landlord. On the whole a specialist should be helpful to carry out a search and to produce a report which can be accepted by the court as proof that the landlord is indeed missing.
