My property lawyer in Copthorne is not on the Chelsea Building Society Approved Panel. Can I still use my prefered solicitor even though they are excluded from the Chelsea Building Society list of approved lawyers?

The limited options open to you here include:

  1. Complete the purchase with your preferred Copthorne lawyers but Chelsea Building Society will need to use a lawyer on their list of acceptable firms. This will inevitably rack up the total legal charges and cause frustration.
  2. Find a new lawyer to to deal with the purchase, obviously checking they are on the Chelsea Building Society panel

What does a local search reveal about the property I am purchasing in Copthorne?

Copthorne conveyancing often commences with the applying for local authority searches directly from your local Authority or through a personal search organisations for instance Xpress Legal The local search plays a central role in many a Copthorne conveyancing purchase; that is if you wish to avoid any unpleasant once you have moved into your new home. The search will supply information on, amongst other things, details on planning applications relevant to the property (whether granted or refused), building control history, any enforcement action, restrictions on permitted development, nearby road schemes, contaminated land and radon gas; in all a total of 13 topic sections.

Have completed on a a semi-detached house in Copthorne , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my title? My Copthorne conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain that my ownership is recorded.

As far as conveyancing in Copthorne registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any third persons or bodies. As of today approximately three quarters of submission are completed within 12 days but occasionally there can be longer delays. Historically registration is effected once the buyer is living at the premises so an expedited registration is not always primary concern but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer should speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I bought a property in Copthorne last 24/1/2023 and to date it is still not recorded with HMLR. It was part of a development site and my conveyancing practitioner told me that it can take one year to register. I have called the Land Registry directly and they have informed me the initial application was cancelled due to failure to reply to requisitions. What can I do?

Call your conveyancing practitioner - if you are not getting sensible responses, look up their firm’s complaints protocol and amplify your problem to a Complaints Manager. Registrations for Copthorne conveyancing are not known to be especially complex.
