I completed on my house on 3 February and the transaction details is not yet on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Longbenton said it would be concluded inside ten days. Are titles in Longbenton uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Longbenton registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any other parties. At present roughly 80% of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Registration occurs once the buyer has moved in to the property thus post completion formalities is not usually an essential issue but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer can contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Longbenton I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Longbenton suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.
