Conveyancing is one of the most time consuming aspects of any home move.
If the property is empty and the buyer does not require a mortgage, a sale or purchase can be completed within a few days.
However, this is very unusual and it is more likely a mortgage will need to be approved and there will be a chain of transactions to contend with.
If this is the case, then it usually takes 4-6 weeks to exchange contracts and then another 2-4 weeks between exchange of contracts and completion.
This makes the process a total of 6-10 weeks from start to finish.

Before contracts are exchanged you'll need to decide on a moving date (completion date) and agree this with everyone else linked to your move - i.e. the chain, discuss this with your estate agent, in the first instance.
