The timescale will depend on a number of factors, such as:
• How long the chain is, that is the number of other transactions linked together. The longer the chain, the more coordination of dates is required and the more likelihood of a problem occurring.
• Do you require a mortgage and have you got the offer in place?
• Are the other parties to the transaction willing to move quickly with the transaction?
If a transaction goes ahead without any major problems then it is possible for it to complete in around 6 weeks. This is only a very general guide. Transactions often take longer than this, but some can be quicker.
At Hoole and Co. we will do everything possible to ensure a quick and efficient transaction and to work with you on proposed moving dates where practical.
