Have completed on a a detached house in Menai Bridge , how long should it take for the Land Registry to record my ownership? My Menai Bridge conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain that my name is recorded.
As far as conveyancing in Menai Bridge is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ depending on the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. At present roughly three quarters of submission are fully dealt with within 12 days but occasionally there can be longer delays. Historically registration is effected after the buyer is living at the property so 'speed' is not always primary concern but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
I have been on the look out for a flat up to £195,000 and found one close by in Menai Bridge I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Menai Bridge suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?
If you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be an issue. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.
