I purchased a flat in Thurrock last 31/7/2023 and to date it is still not registered with HMLR. It was part of a development site and my lawyer told me that it can take 12 months to complete the registration formalities. I have called HM Land Registry directly and they say that the original application was cancelled due to failure to reply to requisitions. Do I need to be concerned?
It is your conveyancer that you must get in touch with in order to satisfy any concerns which have arisen as part of the registration formalities for your Thurrock property. Normal Thurrock conveyancing practice includes an undertaking on the part of the seller's conveyancer that they will help resolve any requisition raised by HMLR so it may be a case of taking action to enforce that undertaking if necessary.
