Just acquired a semi-detached house in Blagdon , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register the transfer to my name? My Blagdon conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be sure that my purchase is registered.

As far as conveyancing in Blagdon registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary depending on who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd parties. As of today approximately three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Historically registration takes place once the buyer has moved in to the premises so post completion formalities is not typically primary concern yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one near me in Blagdon I like with open areas and station nearby, however it's only got 52 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Blagdon for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

If you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
