You could always pay £3 to see if the LR have updated ownership to yourself, otherwise as above, what paperwork?"It is prudent when shopping for something important, not to limit yourself to Pound land/Estate Agents"

We got the searches, a couple of certificates, most had been emailed to us and a copy of our land registry entry.
We were offered storage for a fee, but collected them.

IP should have received copies of searches, certificates (boiler warranties etc?) etc before Exchange as part of the conveyancing and their decision-making process.Land Registry entries are taking a long time, but as suggested, for £3 you can check if your ownership has been registered yet.You do, of course, have a right to your complete file, though solicitors may charge a fee for copying/sending it.0

If it was a new build or previously unregistered then it could still be with us waiting to be completed. What have they said each time you contacted them?English_60 said:Hi I bought my house in April 2020 and have still not had my paperwork from my solicitor all I have had was the the bill I have contacted them on 4 occasions about this but still not got anything what can I do to get them released from the solicitorIf they’ve confirmed it’s still with us then just wait for them to notify you once done. You bought it in April 2020 and if it’s with us to register then bear with us and the solicitor as your purchase and ownership are protected.“Official Company Representative
