Just acquired a detached house in Temple Fortune , how long should it take for the Land Registry to register my ownership? My Temple Fortune conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain the registration formalities are dealt with.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Temple Fortune registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can adjust depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry communicate with any 3rd persons or bodies. At present approximately three quarters of submission are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Registration occurs after the purchaser has moved in to the property thus 'speed' is not typically an essential issue but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
How does conveyancing in Temple Fortune differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Temple Fortune come to us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because developers in Temple Fortune tend to acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Temple Fortune or who has acted in the same development.
