Just bought a terraced house in Hale , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing the transfer to my name? My Hale conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain that my ownership is registered.
As far as conveyancing in Hale registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry communicate with any 3rd parties. As of today in the region of 80% of such applications are fully addressed within two weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Historically registration occurs after the buyer has moved in to the premises so an expedited registration is not always an essential issue but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

Where a Hale lease has less than 80 years it will affect the salability of the flat. Check with your bank that they are willing to to proceed given the lease term. Leases with fewer than 80 years remaining means that you will almost definitely have to extend the lease sooner rather than later and you need to have some idea of how much this will be. Remember, in most cases you will be required to have been the owner of the residence for two years in order to be legally able to extend the lease. It is important to be aware if redecorating or some other major work is due shortly that will be shared amongst the leaseholders and will materially impact the level of the maintenance charges or necessitate a specific invoice. Most Hale leasehold flats will be liable to pay a service charge for maintenance of the building levied by the landlord. Where you purchase the property you will have to pay this contribution, usually periodically accross the year. This may be anything from several hundred pounds to thousands of pounds for buildings with lifts and large common grounds. In all likelihood there will be a ground rent to be met annual, normally this is not a significant figure, say approximately £25-£75 but you need to check it because sometimes it could be many hundreds of pounds.
