Have completed on a a terraced house in North Yorkshire , how long will it take for the Land Registry to register my title? My North Yorkshire conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to check that my ownership is registered.
As far as conveyancing in North Yorkshire registration is no faster or slower than the rest of the country. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust depending on the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry have to notify any third parties. Currently in the region of three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer delays. Registration takes place once the new owner has moved in to the premises thus registration formalities is not usually an essential issue but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers can speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. North Yorkshire is the location of the property. Is there any guidance you can give?

Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
