I purchased my house on 12 February and the transaction details are still not on the land registry website. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Lechlade said it will be dealt with in a couple of weeks. Are properties in Lechlade uniquely lengthy to register?
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Lechlade registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any interested parties. As of today in the region of three quarters of submission are fully dealt with within two weeks but occasionally there can be longer delays. Historically registration takes place after the purchaser has moved in to the property thus 'speed' is not typically primary concern but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor must contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Lechlade I like with open areas and railway links nearby, however it's only got 52 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Lechlade in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.

As part of a lawyers enquiries they will check that all ground rent and service charges are paid up to date amongst other general leasehold matters. For this reason, the Sellers lawyers usually have to refer to the freeholder or Managing Agent for their replies to our questions. This may be time consuming and beyond the lawyers control
