Just bought a detached house in Cookham , how long will it take for the Land Registry to register the transfer to my name? My Cookham conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to check the registration is dealt with.

There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Cookham registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary subject to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry communicate with any third persons or bodies. Currently approximately three quarters of such applications are fully addressed within two weeks but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Registration takes place after the purchaser is living at the premises thus an expedited registration is not typically top priority but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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.
