There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Forestdale registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd persons or bodies. Currently approximately 80% of such applications are completed within 12 days but some can be subject to extensive delays. Registration is effected after the purchaser is living at the property thus 'speed' is not always top priority yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers should contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

My a decade ago. He has since got married, divorced and is now married again. He will be selling the apartment in a few weeks. I believe he will simply be requested to supply copies of his marriage certificates to the lawyer however he is worried it will frustrate the conveyancing. Is it worth updating the land title details for the property?

You are not required to bring up to date the title for the property as long as you have the proof required to show how the change of name has come about.

The buyer’s conveyancer will check the registered information and request evidence by way of proof of the change of name for example marriage documentation.
