Land Registry: frequency of updates?

jjlandlord

Thanks, I will.

I doubt anyone would have the view that an online service should be unavailable depending on the time of day, or day of week, though...

LR's product innovation pages says:

Our Find a Property service, which lets you check property ownership and download title registers and plans, is currently available Monday to Saturday from 7am to 12 midnight. How well do those hours suit you? Has the site been closed when you’ve wanted to use it? We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments section below.

To me the real question is why should it not be available.
Why even bother with such restriction to then ask for 'comments'?

I'm of course going to comment that LR should just make the service available and encourage everyone to do the same.

There is no definitive timescale as explained previously and it could in theory take as long as 8 weeks before the conveyancer lodges the application, a further 6 weeks to complete the registration (something wrong with it when lodged) and then a further 6 weeks before it appears on any third party website depending on when in the month the registration was completed.

Eventually, I bought the online title register from LR. Turns out that the completion was indeed done in July (almost the date I was told about). The registration was done in mid-September, exactly 8 weeks after completion.

As a result, the free databases still haven't caught up.
