What day of the week should I complete on?
Traditionally Friday is the day most people opt to complete on.
People understandably like the idea of having a weekend to settle into their new place and unpack. The problem is, 'the whole world and his dog' have the same idea; this not only means that you're likely to have to pay extra for your removals, but additionally, if there are any delays concerning matters such as disbursements, you may have to wait until Monday to sort issues out while incurring charges in the meanwhile.
If you go against the stream and opt to complete on a different weekday, you'll likely find that removals will be cheaper and your solicitor is less busy with other matters.
