As far as conveyancing in Northwich registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry need to notify any other parties. At present approximately three quarters of such applications are completed within two weeks but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Registration takes place after the buyer is living at the property thus 'speed' is not always an essential issue but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer could speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.

Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. 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.
