Landmark Information are hosting a free webinar – “The Completion Crunch: why property transactions are taking up to 49% longer” – Tuesday, March 22, 2022, 12:30 GMT.
The average time to complete on a home purchase has increased from 83 days in 2007 to 122 days in 2021; sales completions have lagged even further, taking an average of 145 days, compared to 97 days in 2007. Yet, with a wealth of PropTech solutions and expertise at estate agents’, lenders’ and conveyancers’ fingertips, this trend begs the question: why is the process slowing down, rather than speeding up?
Join Landmark for this timely webinar where they will offer property professionals from across the value chain new insights into the potential reasons and remedies for this unwelcome slowdown. Whether your remit is legal, commercial, or financial, Landmark’s expert commentary and data-led market insights from across the entire property value chain will offer you a new lens on property transactions, including:
- Realities and myths about common transaction roadblocks and delays
- The true effects of government and fiscal policy, market forces and regulatory change on transaction completion times
- Whether technology and digitisation help or hinder transaction times
- The single part of the process that’s seeing turnaround times speed up
- How different elements of the property value chain can work better together to reverse the trend
Simon Brown, CEO, Landmark Information Group (The Daily Telegraph, 3 March 2022):
“The process has simply failed to keep pace with demand and incremental delays at each point have added up to create a much bigger problem for home movers.”
Hear Landmark’s experts share 15 years of quality transaction milestone data and offer interpretations and insights from their own specialist industry perspective across the overall property value chain:
- Mike Holden, Managing Director, Landmark Valuation Services
- Rob Gurney, Managing Director, Ochresoft
- Ben Robinson, Managing Director – Landmark Estate Agency Services
You will take away a more coherent picture of a fragmented and complex process and gain fresh ideas about how property professionals can turn the tide against increasingly time-consuming and frustrating transactions.
