I bought my apartment on 11 July and the transaction details is not yet registered. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Winchcombe said it will be concluded inside ten days. Are titles in Winchcombe particularly slow to register?

As far as conveyancing in Winchcombe is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry communicate with any third persons or bodies. At present in the region of three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within 12 days but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Registration is effected once the buyer is living at the premises so 'speed' is not always top priority yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

How does conveyancing in Winchcombe differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Winchcombe contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because developers in Winchcombe 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 Winchcombe or who has acted in the same development.

Is it best to instruct a Winchcombe conveyancing solicitor who is local to the property I am purchasing? An old friend can perform the legal formalities but his firm is located over three hundred miles drive away.

The benefit of a local Winchcombe conveyancing firm is that you can visit the firm to sign documents, present your ID and apply pressure on them if necessary. They will also have local insight which is a benefit. However nothing is more important than finding someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who used your friend and the majority were content that must outweigh using an unknown Winchcombe conveyancing lawyer just because they are based in the area.

We are soon to acquiring a home in Winchcombe. Conveyancing is not over but we would like keep our purchase price private from sites such as Nestoria. How could this be done?

HM Land Registry by statute are obliged to disclose price paid information on a register of the title for domestic properties nationwide including properties in Winchcombe. The register of title is a public document, so the Land Registry would be breaking the law excluded specific properties such as the one in Winchcombe.

In essence you can ask HM Land Registry to hide the amount paid entry however the response would be in the negative.
