Unilateral notice

Hi there

Im in the last bits of purchasing a property. In the last searches this was found. When i spoke to my solicitor they advised it is a unilateral notice. The sellers solicitor has advised that they will get this this removed ASAP and will speak to this 3rd party.

How long will this take to be removed if fast tracked? Has this unilateral notice been sent with any proof? Has any movement happened on this?

Title number: WA854614

Application lodged by GHP LEGAL

Hi Emma - if they are going to ask the 3rd party to withdraw/cancel their application then we need that request to come in from that 3rd party first. As soon as they provide a sufficient request we can then cancel it fairly quickly.
No such request has been submitted as yet it seems

Hi adam 

Thank you for the quick reply.

Can the sellers solicitors in the mean time put in a un4 form? 

Also how long does the unilateral notice last for if no proof has been sent in?

Thank you

Hi Emma - they can but that's the much more long-winded approach. A UN1 application stands on it's own so no 'proof' is required other than the form.
Once processed the registered owner is then notified. If they decide it's not valid they can submit a UN4 as you mention

Hi there

Can you confirm that the sellers solicitor has submitted a un4 form or any updates on this please 

Hi Emma - no further application submitted as yet

Hi. Has there been any updates?

Hi Emma - nothing as yet

Hi again. Has there been any updates?

HI Emma - none re the UN but we have now received an application to discharge the existing legal charge (mortgage)

Hi there

We was told the sellers solicitor has put in the un4 form 5 weeks ago but haven't heard anything can you tell me what is happening?

Many thanks

Emma

Hi Emma - the original application as lodged by GHP LEGAL to register a Unilateral Notice is still pending as we are awaiting a response from them to our request dated 10th September. Until they respond we can't complete later lodged applications.

Hi

If they don't reply what happens? 

To confirm that the un4 from the sellers solicitors hasn't been processed yet.

Many thanks

Emma

Emma - if they don;t reply then it can be cancelled but that's some way from happening at present and we would generally issue a reminder before we do that.
The UN4 won't be processed until the prior pending application(s) have been dealt with. There's also an application to discharge the registered legal charge (mortgage) to be processed as well
I'll check with the casework team to see if they are able to progress matters re those other pending applications even though neither can actually be completed until the UN1 is dealt with

So what is the time frame for the un1 to be cancelled if no reply?

Thank you for contacting the case work team in the mean time.

Emma - once a request is issued they are usually issued a reminder after 6/7 weeks . Cancellation may follow thereafter if they fail to respond

Hi

how long after the reminder do they have to respond before the cancellation?

 

Hi again

Is there any any time frame after the reminder notice?

Hi Emma - the timescale is usually 20 days after the reminder is issued

Hi Emma - just to update you that the casework team have written to the conveyancer to advise that they have until the 8th November to respond 
We must give them notice and time to respond. Clearly what happens next will depend on their response
