Hi,
At the beginning of this year, in January, I shared my house deed with my wife (transfer of equity), making us joint owners. previously I owned the house since 2016 June.
Our circumstances have changed since then, and we have now sold our house (subject to contract) to a first-time buyer who is not willing to wait.
Our new solicitor, with whom we are getting the service for selling this house, has informed me that our application from January is still in progress.
We are genuinely concerned that this delay might prevent us from selling the house, and we are feeling quite stressed about it. How can I determine how long this process will take, and is there a way to find out the current status and estimated time of arrival (ETA)? Additionally, is there anything I can do to expedite this process?
Below are the details of this application (detail I received from my new solicitor):
HM Land Registry Reference: N196SGT
Customer Reference: 1051769.002
Date: 17 Jan 2024
Any help is appreciated. Thank you
