Just acquired a semi-detached house in Milton Keynes Village , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my ownership? My Milton Keynes Village conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain the registration is concluded.

As far as conveyancing in Milton Keynes Village registration is no faster or slower than the rest of the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry communicate with any interested parties. As of today approximately three quarters of such applications are fully addressed within 12 days but some can be subject to extensive delays. Registration takes place once the buyer is living at the property so 'speed' is not typically an essential issue but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

How does conveyancing in Milton Keynes Village differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Milton Keynes Village come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because builders in Milton Keynes Village usually acquire 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 conveyancers 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 Milton Keynes Village or who has acted in the same development.
