Conveyancing timeline when selling?

[GenderApostate19]

Accepted an offer on the 29th Jan, Valuation done last Friday ( agents informed us that a valuation would be done, no mention of a survey, which I thought was odd for a 60 year old house)

Will we only hear from the agent if there is a problem?
I’m assuming we’ve had nothing at all from our solicitors yet because they are waiting for confirmation of our buyers’ mortgage offer?

Are you buying somewhere else?

Have you filled in TA6 and TA10 form? (Fixtures & Fittings, Sellers property information)

Has your solicitor sent the draft contract pack alomng with supporting docs to the buyer's solicitor?

Typically a sale takes around 10 - 12 weeks from sale arranged until exchange. Might be shorter if you're lucky and everything is straightforward, could be longer if something causes a delay.

Not buying anywhere - selling my late FiL’s house.
No chain involved, our buyers aren’t selling.
Not had any paperwork from our solicitors, DH verified his ID with them last week and dropped off the house deeds (it’s an unregistered property).

I don’t even know if my SiL has verified her ID with them - she’s currently ignoring us so I don’t know if she’s had anything from them ( joint executor).

Even if she has, she’ll do precisely fuck all with it 🙄

There'll be some forms to fill in, so you might want to chase up your solicitor to send those over to you.

I'm not sure how long the Land Regsitry are currently taking to process these things, so that may cause a delay.

As pp have said, your solicitor needs to send you the property information forms to return to the buyers.
The buyers might also commission a damp survey etc.
Your solicitors could ask whether the buyers solicitors have commissioned the searches yet- searches are taking weeks at the moment.
Is your SIL a beneficiary? She will need to complete the anti-money laundering forms.
The solicitor will send you the contract to sign and return.
Hard to say how long this will take at present. The solicitors are all mad busy with people trying to beat the stamp duty deadline.

Our council are apparently taking 15 working days for searches - my DD is currently buying a house, she’s a few days ahead in the process and had her mortgage offer the day after her valuation and survey, plus she’s had paperwork from her solicitor, so has her vendor.

Our buyers already had a mortgage offer for a higher amount on a property that fell through in January so it won’t be an application from scratch.

I think in this case, with the property being unregistered, it's unlikely to be the searches or the mortgage application that will hold things up.

HAve you got a Land Registry compliant plan?

I did download the ndn title plan which shows the boundaries of the houses in the street, I don’t know if that’s sufficient?
I know on the old deeds it only shows the plot of land, not the individual plots, the house is referred to as plot 91 but the actual house number is different.
The last conveyance was done in 1971, it was built in 1962, orginally was mining and farm land before WW1.

Half the houses on the street are apparently unregistered, houses only tend to come up for sale when the owner dies.
