When I began in practice there were automatically 28 days between exchange and completion. In France there are invariably two months. These delays gave time for title to be deduced (anyone remember Abstracts and Epitomes of the Title?), mortgage work and searches to be done, etc.

Will we see the day when clients invariably want transactions to be completed in the same week as they agree terms? That is the direction in which moves such as this are taking us.

I can only thank my lucky stars that I am out of it.
