As a FTB what is the most important number one tip you can give me concerning purchase conveyancing in Mevagissey?
Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Mevagissey or throughout England and Wales is an adversarial process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists plenty of opportunity for confrontation between you and other parties involved in the legal transfer of property. For example, the seller, estate agent and on occasion your mortgage company. Selecting a law firm for your conveyancing in Mevagissey an important selection as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY person in the legal process whose interest is to look after your best interests and to keep you safe.
Every so often a potential adversary will attempt to convince you that you should follow their advice. For example, the selling agent may claim to be assisting by claiming that your solicitor is dragging his heels. Or your financial adviser may tell you to do take action that is contrary to your conveyancers guidance. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties when it comes to the legal transfer of property.

I moved into my house on 1 March and my personal details is not yet on the land registry website. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Mevagissey said it would be concluded inside ten days. Are properties in Mevagissey particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Mevagissey is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry communicate with any 3rd persons or bodies. At present roughly 80% of submission are fully addressed within 12 days but some can be subject to protracted delays. Registration is effected after the new owner has moved in to the premises thus 'speed' is not always top priority but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor can speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
