As far as conveyancing in Montgomery is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any other persons or bodies. Currently roughly 80% of submission are fully dealt with within 12 days but some can be subject to protracted delays. Historically registration is effected after the purchaser is living at the property thus post completion formalities is not typically top priority but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
