- but are not moving to another property
- where Bank of Ireland has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Bank of Ireland has instructed the Land Registry to do so
At last I have had an offer on an apartment in Edgwarebury agreed to, but there is a chain. The sellers have put an offer on a flat, but it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have chosen a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Edgwarebury.

It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
