The conveyancers conducting our conveyancing in Pentraeth has forwarded documents to review that state the property is unregistered with epitome documents. How can it be that the property not registred at the Land Registry?
Whilst the vast majorities of properties in Pentraeth are now registered with the Land Registry there are still a few that remain unregistered. Any property in Pentraeth that has been remortgaged since the late 1980’s will have been registered at the Land Registry under the compulsory ‘first registration’ scheme. However, if a Pentraeth property has not changed hands in that time then it’s likely the old fashioned title deeds will be the only evidence of ownership.Many Pentraeth conveyancing practitioners should be capable of dealing with such matters but in the event that uncertainty exists the conventional proposition nowadays is for the seller’s conveyancer to address the registration formalities first and subsequently deal with the dispose of the property to the purchaser - this undoubtedly cause a significant delay.
