Land Registry - potential delays
We've been experiencing delays with the Land Registry. In some cases, it has taken well over a year for properties to be registered. It's the responsibility of the solicitor who represented the purchaser during the initial property purchase to register the lease.
When property registrations have not been followed up promptly by the solicitor responsible, this can cause problems when our customers want to staircase or resell their property. This is why we strongly advise our customers to check with their original solicitor to confirm that their property has been registered.
