Frequently asked questions

How long does buying a property take in England?
From accepted offer to completion: typically 12–16 weeks. Can be faster with a chain-free sale and motivated parties; can be much longer in a chain. The legal process (searches, surveys, enquiries) takes a minimum of 8–10 weeks. Do not give notice on a rental until exchange — not offer acceptance.
Is it really free?
Yes — no email, no sign-up.
Can I print it more than once?
Yes — print as many copies as you need.
