Expiditing land registry application
Melanied
Posts: 4 Newbie
I'm wandering if anyone can help me. We are currently selling our house and came to a problem with the leasehold garage, it was never actually registered when it was built and is still in my partner's mother's name (who has passed away). Our buyer is threatening to pull out and our mortgage offer also expires end of may. Our solicitors have put an application in for it to be expidited to which land registry refused on the basis that we had no evidence of urgency. Our solicitor has now sent them a letter from our buyers solicitor stating she cannot wait much longer as she is homeless and also our mortgage offer which states expiry.
Is this now likely to be accepted as they have the evidence and also if it is, how long does it take?! This is extremely stressful and we need to make the decision to rent to her until completion but only on the basis that land registry will expidite as I heard registration and transfer of name can take months?! Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks!
