  • Solicitors. Pull your fucking finger out. If you leave the local authority to reply in their own sweet time this will run and run. I have told you that both the vendor and I could theoretically exchange at any time so it is in your interest to get a fucking move on if you want to recognise any revenue from this work.

  • If you're talking about local authority searches there is often nothing you can do to compel them to go any faster. When we bought our flat Hackney had a backlog and they were taking about a month (summer 2012, they were blaming the Olympics, lol).

    It was the only thing holding our purchase up but there was no way to make them go any faster so we got our flat a month later.

    All depends on the local authority of course, they should take about five days.
