I am an executor of my recently deceased mum’s Will, with a house in St Pancras which is to be sold. The house is unregistered at HMLR and I'm told that some buyers solicitors will insist that it is in place before they will proceed. What's the mechanism for this?

In the situation you refer to it seems sensible to apply to register in the names of the personal representative(s) as named in the probate and in their capacity as PRs. HMLR’s online guidance explains how to register for the first time and what is required re the deeds and forms.
