Just acquired a detached house in Trentham , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register the transfer to my name? My Trentham conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to check the registration formalities are dealt with.

As far as conveyancing in Trentham is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of the country.

Registration takes place once the buyer has moved in to the premises so registration formalities is not usually an essential issue yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer must contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

How does conveyancing in Trentham differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Trentham approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because builders in Trentham tend to purchase 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Trentham or who has acted in the same development.

Am I best advised to choose a Trentham conveyancing solicitor who is local to the property I am buying? I have an old university friend who can conduct the legal formalities but they are based 200kilometers away.
