⏳ One of the most frustrating parts of buying your first home is not knowing how long everything actually takes. From getting your offer accepted to finally holding the keys, the process can feel never-ending.
In this episode, I’m breaking down the full home-buying timeline step by step so you know what to expect and when it’s time to chase.
Main Points: • The average timeline from offer accepted to completion.
• What happens at each stage: mortgage application, searches, surveys, exchange, completion.
• What’s considered “normal” waiting vs delays worth chasing.
• How to manage expectations (and your stress levels) during long waits.
• Practical tips to reduce bottlenecks and keep the process moving forward.
