I bought my house on 13 August and my personal details are still not on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Denton said it would be concluded inside ten days. Are transfers in Denton uniquely lengthy to register?

There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Denton registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any interested persons or bodies. Currently roughly three quarters of such applications are fully addressed within 12 days but occasionally there can be longer hold-ups. Registration takes place once the new owner has moved in to the premises thus post completion formalities is not always top priority but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor should contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Denton is the location of the property. Is there any guidance you can give?

Flying freeholds in Denton are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Denton you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Denton may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

Is there a distinction between surveying and conveyancing in Denton?

Conveyancing - in Denton or anywhere in England and Wales - is the process of legally transferring legal title of property from one person to another. It involves the checking of the title. Whether buying or selling, you should be aware of anything affecting the property such as proposals by government departments, illegal buildings, or outstanding rates. The conveyancer should conduct the appropriate searches and inquiries on the property. Surveying relates to the structure of a property itself. A surveyor will look at a house, flat and any outbuildings you’re purchasing and will help you find out about the condition of the building and, if there are problems, give you a powerful reason for reducing the price down or asking the seller to remedy the defects prior to you move in.
