I can not work out if my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Crouch End bank branch on various occasions and was told it wasn't a problem and they would lend.

I acquired my apartment on 16 March and my personal details are still not on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Crouch End said it should be formalised in a couple of weeks. Are properties in Crouch End particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Crouch End is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can adjust subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry have to notify any other parties. Currently approximately 80% of submission are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Historically registration occurs after the purchaser has moved in to the property therefore an expedited registration is not always primary concern but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
