Have completed on a a detached house in Newham , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register my ownership? My Newham conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be sure the registration formalities are dealt with.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Newham registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust subject to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any other persons or bodies. As of today approximately three quarters of submission are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Registration occurs once the new owner has moved in to the property thus post completion formalities is not typically primary concern yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose?

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. Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.

Attached was a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1991. The conveyancing solicitor in Newham who acted for me is not around. What should I do?
First contact HMLR to make sure that this person is indeed the new freeholder. There is no need to incur the fees of a Newham conveyancing lawyer to do this as it can be done on-line for less than a fiver. You should note that in any event, even if this is the legitimate freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 the limitation period for recovery of ground rent is six years.
