We're in Thorne, First time buyers purchasing with a mortgage (lender is UBS , and our solicitor is on the UBS conveyancing panel). How long should the conveyancing process take?

Have purchased a a terraced house in Thorne , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my title? My Thorne conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to check the land registry aspects are concluded.
As far as conveyancing in Thorne is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry have to notify any third parties. Currently approximately three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer hold-ups.

How does conveyancing in Thorne differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Thorne contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because builders in Thorne tend to purchase the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Thorne or who has acted in the same development.
