🏠 MYTH VS FACT 🏠

“If a survey finds problems with the property, the seller has to fix them.”

A survey is primarily an assessment of the property’s physical condition and can highlight defects, maintenance issues, or areas that may require further investigation.

However, the seller is not automatically required to carry out the repairs identified in the survey. If issues are uncovered, the buyer may choose to negotiate with the seller — for example, by asking for specific works to be carried out or requesting a reduction in the purchase price to reflect the anticipated cost of repairs.

It’s important to remember that a survey can provide valuable information to help you make an informed decision about the property, but what happens next is generally a matter for negotiation between the buyer and seller.

Whether you're a first time buyer, moving home, or investing in property, our experienced team is here to guide you every step of the way — with clarity, confidence, and practical support.

🏠MYTH VS FACT🏠

“Conveyancing only takes 8 weeks”

It’s a common misconception that a conveyancing transaction should always be completed within 8 weeks.

The reality? 8 weeks is an ideal scenario, but it isn’t the norm. Every transaction is different, and timescales can be affected by factors outside your solicitor’s control, including:

🔹 Mortgage approval times
🔹 Local authority search turnaround times
🔹 Enquiries raised by the buyer’s solicitor
🔹 Delays within a property chain
🔹 Issues identified by surveys

Some transactions can take 10–16 weeks, so it’s important to allow realistic timescales and plan ahead.

At Hughes Solicitors, we’re here to guide you through every step of your property transaction and keep things moving wherever possible.

🏠MYTH VS FACT🏠

There are countless misconceptions about buying and selling property, and following the wrong advice can lead to delays, added stress, and unexpected costs. That’s exactly why we’re launching our Myth vs Fact series — to cut through the noise and give you clear, reliable guidance throughout your conveyancing journey.

“You only need to instruct a solicitor once your offer has been accepted.”

Speaking with a solicitor early can make a real difference. Getting advice at the start helps you prepare properly, understand what documents you’ll need, and avoid avoidable delays later in the process. A little planning upfront can save valuable time once your transaction is underway.

Whether you're a first time buyer, moving home, or investing in property, our experienced team is here to guide you every step of the way — with clarity, confidence, and practical support.
