I completed on my flat on 7 January and the transaction details is not yet registered. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Bembridge expressed confidence that it will be formalised in less than a month. Are titles in Bembridge uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Bembridge is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any interested persons or bodies. Currently approximately three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Historically registration occurs after the purchaser has moved in to the property therefore 'speed' is not typically an essential issue but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
