With Halloween just round the corner, the conversations in our office change. Every year, as soon as the pumpkins are packed away, the same question begins to crop up: “Can we be in by Christmas?”
It is an understandable goal. For many people, Christmas represents a fresh start, a time for family, and the comfort of being settled in a new space. But it is also one of the busiest periods in the property calendar.
If you are hoping to complete before the festive break, now is the time to get things moving. Early preparation makes a real difference. It allows your solicitor to progress each stage of the process calmly and efficiently, avoiding the seasonal rush.
Our final date for completions before Christmas is Friday 19 December. Starting the process now will give you the best chance of being comfortably settled in your new home before the holidays begin.
At Leigh Duncan Solicitors, we know how important timing and communication are when it comes to moving home. Our Conveyancing team takes a proactive approach, keeping things simple, transparent and on track. We use straightforward communication, practical tools and responsive support to make sure your move stays stress-free, even during the busiest season of the year.
If your goal is to be settled in before the holidays, contact us now to get your conveyancing started. A little forward planning could make that first Christmas morning in your new home even more special.
