Property Title Register

Posts: 14 Forumite
Hi all,
I bought a house back in September 2021, as yet my name isn't on the property title register. It still has the previous owner on.
Any suggestions where to start with this please.
Best regards
Christian.

What did your conveyancer say, when you asked him about it?
I expect he told you there are long delays at the Land Registry?
No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -
Yes she did, but I didn't expect this long.

Worth chasing your solicitor, to make sure there's nothing odd, but it might just be the registry - mine took a year! (moved in Feb 2021)1
