The time it takes from your offer being accepted until you can move into your new house, complete the sale of your current house, or finalise your new mortgage depends on several factors. On average, the conveyancing process takes between 10 and 14 weeks to complete. It usually depends on the other parties in the chain.

For example, if you are a first-time buyer purchasing a new-build property with a mortgage in principle, it could take six weeks. However, if you are buying a leasehold property that requires a lease extension, this process can take significantly longer; additional charges will also apply.

The time it takes from your offer being accepted until you complete the sale of your house depends on several factors. The average sale conveyancing process is between 10 and 14 weeks. However, this can vary depending on several factors.

For example:-

• If there is a chain (e.g. you are also buying or your buyer is selling a property – which can extend depending on how many people, or "links", are in the chain). All of the key stages outlined above are likely to need completing for each link in the chain.
• If the financing of any link in the chain is complex, for example, remortgaging another property proceeds from a sale being handled as part of a divorce or cashing in investments where a specific period is required to draw down those funds.
• If there are any unforeseen complexities as a result of a title issue or an adverse survey obtained by your purchaser.

The time it takes from your offer being accepted until you can move into your house depends on several factors. The average purchase conveyancing process is between 10 and 14 weeks. However, this can vary depending on several factors.

• If you are a first-time buyer.
• If you are buying a new build property which is not yet built, the time it takes to complete the transaction will be governed by the timescale for the build, which we cannot estimate without knowing the circumstances of a particular case.

The time it takes from your offer being accepted until you complete the sale of your house depends on several factors. The average sale conveyancing process is between 10 and 14 weeks, but a leasehold typically takes around 4 weeks longer. Overall, the sales process can vary depending on several factors.

• If there are any unforeseen complexities as a result of a title issue or an adverse survey obtained by your purchaser.
• If your sale requires an extension of the lease (to satisfy the buyer's requirements), this can take significantly longer than the average timescale of 10 to 14 weeks.  In such a situation, additional charges would apply.

The time it takes from your offer being accepted until you can move into your house depends on several factors. The standard purchase conveyancing process is between 10 and 14 weeks, whereas a residential leasehold purchase typically takes around 4 weeks longer. Overall, the purchase can also vary depending on several factors.

The time it takes from securing a mortgage offer until you complete the mortgage or remortgage of your house depends. The average mortgage conveyancing process of this nature takes between four to six weeks.

However, this varies depending on several factors. For example:

• If there is a delay in any survey or valuation to be carried out by the new lender.
• If there are any unforeseen complexities with your mortgage as a result of a title issue or an adverse survey obtained by your lender.
