We are selling our house in Orpington and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem.

As far as conveyancing in Orpington is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd persons or bodies. Currently in the region of three quarters of such applications are completed within two weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Historically registration is effected once the new owner is living at the property therefore an expedited registration is not typically top priority but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
