Just bought a terraced house in Preston , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record the transfer to my name? My Preston conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain the land registry aspects are dealt with.
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Preston registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can adjust depending on the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry have to notify any third persons or bodies. At present roughly three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Historically registration is effected once the buyer is living at the premises so registration formalities is not typically primary concern but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor could contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Preston is the location of the property. Is there any advice you can impart?
Flying freeholds in Preston are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Preston you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Preston may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
We are contemplating using an online conveyancing practitioner as opposed to a Preston conveyancing firm. Am I making a mistake?
Advantages do exist in having the option attend a local Preston conveyancing solicitor for instance
- signing documents same day
- having face-to-face explanations of issues that you need help with
- the ability to complain if matters need to addressed
When comparing fees, look carefully for hidden extras. Most decent Preston high street solicitors give an all-inclusive figure. Many online companies seem to offer cheap prices, but have burried 'extras' in the small print.
