Just bought a detached house in Clevedon , how long should it take for the Land Registry to register my ownership? My Clevedon conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain that my name is recorded.

As far as conveyancing in Clevedon is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can vary depending on who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry communicate with any interested parties. Currently in the region of three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Historically registration occurs after the purchaser has moved in to the property thus an expedited registration is not typically an essential issue yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

How does conveyancing in Clevedon differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Clevedon approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because house builders in Clevedon usually buy the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Clevedon or who has acted in the same development.
