I purchased a property in Wilford last 27/8/2024 and to date it is still not registered with HMLR. It was part of a new estate and my conveyancer told me that it can take twelve months to register. I have contacted the Land Registry directly and they say that the initial application was cancelled due to questions not being addressed in time. Do I need to be concerned?
It is your property lawyer that you should get in touch with in order to satisfy any concerns which have been raised as part of the registration formalities for your Wilford property. Normal Wilford conveyancing practice includes an undertaking on the part of the vendor’s solicitor that they will help resolve any requisition raised by HMLR so it may be a case of taking action to enforce that undertaking in some way.
