What is the deeds office turnaround time?
The deeds office usually takes 2 — 3 weeks to process the documents, though this can fluctuate depending on circumstances. If the process goes smoothly then it can be concluded in a mere 7 to 8 working days, while in the case of a bottleneck, it may take as much as two months. There is no way to expedite the process once the documents are in the possession of the deeds office.
