It depends on whether the property you are buying/selling is freehold or leasehold and of course how many are in the chain. The average timescale for a freehold sale/purchase takes between 4-6 weeks and 6-8 weeks for a leasehold sale/purchase. Rest assured, if a specific title issue arises, your specialist Solicitor will be quickly able to resolve the problem, and keep you fully informed at all times
