Have purchased a a terraced house in Bow , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing the transfer to my name? My Bow conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain that my name is recorded.
As far as conveyancing in Bow registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary subject to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry communicate with any interested parties. At present in the region of 80% of submission are completed within two weeks but occasionally there can be extensive delays.

I'm purchasing a new build house in Bow benefiting from help to buy. The builders refused to budge the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The sale representative told me not disclose to my solicitor about this deal as it could jeopardize my loan with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

My mother and father are unable to locate their Bow land registry title on the online search facility. They have a vague recollection back in the 60’s when they purchased the property there were complications concerning Bow not being identified on some systems.
Almost all premises in Bow should be revealed. Have you limited your search to just the postcode. Usually it will identify all the residences inside that postcode. Where recorded it will be there with a title number. If they bought back in the 60’s it's conceivable it may be unrecorded. The property may still be revealed but with the title number identified as 'na'. In this scenario you will need to find the original title documentation which might be with your parent’s mortgage company.
