Once a buyer is found and a chain is complete the average time for a sale to proceed to completion is around four months. This means to give yourself a chance of moving by Christmas, homeowners need to come to the market in the next few weeks.

We are entering July and are mentioning the C word! Are we mad? Well, please bear with us....

Whilst most of us are looking forward to our summer holidays in the next few weeks, we have to mention Christmas if you have plans to enjoy your Roast Turkey in new surroundings.

The good news is, based on the average time it takes to buy a home, there's still time to get over the threshhold before Christmas if you start your search now.

The buying and selling process is unfortunately taking longer than ever, which causes us much frustration. An average property transaction is taking *150 days (up from 100 days in 2019) once a complete chain is in place. We hope in the future the process will be improved and streamlined, but for now we are following a conveyancing process that has been in place for quite some time.

The good news for people looking to move is that there is still a good demand in the local housing market. Rising inflation and interest rates do not seem to have slowed the market down just yet. For this reason there has still never been a better time to achieve the very best price for your property.
