The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.

There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision.

The primary upside of using a local Hornsey Rise conveyancing practice is that you can visit the firm to sign documents, present your ID and pester them where appropriate. They will also have local knowledge which is a bonus. That being said it's more important to get someone that will do a good and efficient job. If you know people who used your friend and they were content that must outweigh using an unfamiliar Hornsey Rise conveyancing solicitor just because they are local.
