What Is The Minimum Time Between Exchange And Completion?
The length of time between exchange and completion is whatever the parties who are involved agree to. The gap between exchange and completion is usually anywhere between one to four weeks. This gap allows everyone involved enough time to organise removals, to change utilities and notify friends and others about a change of address. Plus to allow time for the finances to be drawn down. Once contracts have been exchanged it allows both the buyers and the sellers to confirm their removal date and to start packing. But there doesn’t need to be a gap, as the minimum time between exchange and completion can be zero days. Or in other words a same-day exchange and completion.
