Just signed up for Land Registry property alerts, and can see that my conveyancing solicitors have an application lodged (a week after we completed) - assume this is regarding registration
Is there a way of doing this retrospectively? We bought our place on 31 March last year, it still hasn't come through on the Land Registry property sale stats (other half is obsessed with property prices and downloads the spreadsheets as soon as they are available).
Our conveyancers cocked up our mortgage and didn't actually pay it off, so we have zero faith that they have done the Land Registry stuff right.
I have no idea what I'm doing with Land Registry stuff.

I think it can take up to 8 months at the moment due to a backlog

Land Registry property alerts
I think you get an alert to any recent activity once signed up.

You can sign up any time (and monitor up to 10 properties), but not sure how far it goes back - have a feeling it might only cover 'open' cases.
Suppose you could cough up the £3 to order a copy of the title, and hope that you see your name(s) on it..?

edit: but there are definitely delays to updating registration at LR, i think 2-3 months is normal for uncomplicated cases

My solicitor/conveyancer has always sent me a copy of the updated land registry record once it has gone through. Perhaps ask yours?

Just signed up for Land Registry property alerts, and can see that my conveyancing solicitors have an application lodged (a week after we completed) - assume this is regarding registration - but there’s also a more recent application (a week later) from Charter Court Financial Services, who appear to be a mortgage provider, though we’re with Nationwide.
Is this likely just to be the old owner’s mortgage folks? These recent stories of ‘house sold without owner knowing’ etc. are likely making me more paranoid than I meed be.
