There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Bollington registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry need to notify any third parties. As of today roughly 80% of submission are fully dealt with within 12 days but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Historically registration is effected after the new owner has moved in to the premises so 'speed' is not usually primary concern yet where 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 an expedited registration.

What makes a Bollington lease problematic?
Leasehold conveyancing in Bollington is not unique. Most leases are individual and legal mistakes in the legal wording can result in certain sections are erroneous. For example, if your lease is missing any of the following, it could be defective:
-
Clauses dealing with recovering service charges for expenditure on the building or common parts. A provision to repair to or maintain parts of the property
A defective lease can cause problems when trying to sell a property as they can affect a potential buyer’s ability to obtain a mortgage. Santander, Chelsea Building Society, and Aldermore all have very detailed conveyancing instructions when it comes to what is expected in a lease. If a mortgage lender believes that the lease is defective they may refuse to grant the mortgage, forcing the purchaser to withdraw.
