These are just a few of the common questions that arise during the process of buying and selling property. It’s understandable why one might ask: Why should buying a house be more difficult and time-consuming than buying a car?
The truth is, the system for buying and selling property in England and Wales is slowly evolving into the electronic age, but it remains rooted in an outdated model—a system that, more often than not, is no longer fit for purpose in today’s fast-paced world. It can be slow, cumbersome, and prone to delays.
This brings us to another important question: Do conveyancers help with buying and selling homes, or do they simply add delay, confusion, stress, and expense to the process? While there are times when conveyancers may contribute to the frustration, the difference between an experienced conveyancer and an inexperienced one can make all the difference. An experienced conveyancer will guide you through the challenges, expertly navigating the complexities of the process and helping things progress smoothly.

The timeline from when your offer is accepted to when you can move into your new home can vary depending on several factors. On average, the process takes between 10-16 weeks for a freehold transaction and 12-18 weeks for a leasehold transaction. However, the timeline can be quicker or slower depending on the parties involved in the chain. A standard remortgage typically takes around 4 weeks.
Exchange of contracts means that a transaction is legally binding, and the completion date is set. Completion is the final step, when the purchase price is paid to the seller and ownership of the property is officially transferred to the buyer.
