Episode 49: A meaningless average

Stuart and Simon discuss a Covid-19 influenced viewing experience, stamp duty and the speed (or not) of completing a sale. The chat this week includes: Awkward property viewings. Vendor vs agent viewing styles. The additional stamp duty rate on your primary residence. The stamp duty holiday rates (spreadsheet). Another offer has been accepted (via a new agent). Trying to complete by Christmas. Average of 77 days for a "proceedable offer". Average of 123 days for conveyancing. Purchases missing the stamp duty holiday. Mortgage delays, perhaps leading to sale failures. A meaningless average. If you've enjoyed this podcast, please tell someone else about it.
