Just bought a semi-detached house in Ashford Kent , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my title? My Ashford Kent conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain the registration formalities are concluded.

As far as conveyancing in Ashford Kent is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timeframes can differ subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. As of today approximately 80% of such applications are completed within 12 days but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Registration occurs after the new owner is living at the property thus an expedited registration is not usually an essential issue yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

It best that you pay the maintenance contribution as usual given that all rents and service invoices will be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
