missplant said:Good afternoon,
I was about to exchange contracts on a property (title number WT272623) when the vendors solicitor noticed there was a charge against the property the charge is a notice of home rights under the family law act 1996.
If possible, please can you tell me if this has been requested to be removed? and how long it will take?
Thank you

Bubblebutt9 said:Please could you help me;
The house we are buying has freehold title and an unregistered leasehold title. The leasehold we are told is in the name of the people selling the house (they purchased both from the developer many years ago). Clearly we cannot move forward until this issue is resolved but how quickly will the land registry register the leasehold when the application is submitted if the sellers solicitors expedite the request?Thank you

Land_Registry said:fmboy said:Hi @Land_Registry
I am purchasing a flat at the moment and I believe the vendor solicitor has applied to I) remove 2010 charge and ii) demise a parking space to the title plan. The title is TGL334313.
Would you be able to provide and update on how long this will complete? I really need to complete in a a month so I wonder if this was expedited/needs to be expedited?
RegardsLooks like point 1 is the hold up as we need more from outgoing lender. I’d suggest contacting seller’s conveyancer to clarify timescales for a reply

Whilst an expedite request was made we can’t do anything with that as processing/checks had already begun so no actual wait time to reduce. The wait time is now the conveyancer’s
It looks like it’s just the outgoing charge that’s the hold up from here“Official Company Representative
