Have completed on a a detached house in Aldermanbury , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register my ownership? My Aldermanbury conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to check that my purchase is registered.
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Aldermanbury registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry communicate with any interested persons or bodies. At present approximately three quarters of submission are fully dealt with within two weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Registration takes place after the purchaser is living at the premises thus 'speed' is not usually primary concern but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the agent has warned us that the vendor will only issue a contract if we instruct their chosen solicitors as they want a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a local solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Aldermanbury
We suspect that the owner is unaware of this demand. Should the owner want ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Contact the owners directly and explain that (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to instruct your own,trusted Aldermanbury conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing thresholds demanded by head office.
I work for a long established estate agency in Aldermanbury where we see a few flat sales jeopardised as a result of leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have received conflicting advice from local Aldermanbury conveyancing firms. Please can you confirm whether the vendor of a flat can instigate the lease extension process for the buyer?
As long as the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to commence the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the proposed purchaser can avoid having to sit tight for 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed before, or at the same time as completion of the disposal of the property.
Alternatively, it may be possible to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.
