    The entire buying and selling process from the initial listing to completion takes approximately 297 days in Ealing. This is 23 days more than the 274-day national average. This is because properties in the London area tend to stay on the market for a longer period of time before an offer is accepted.

    However, the total length of the conveyancing process is dependent on the difficulty of the case. For example, if you are buying or selling a leasehold property, you may find that the process lasts longer. This is because of the extra paperwork your conveyancer has to submit before completion.

    What to Expect From Conveyancing Searches in Ealing?

    An essential part of buying a house in the UK is the conveyancing process. This includes conveyancing searches organised by your conveyancer. These searches provide crucial information on the property.

    Ealing Council is a lead local flood authority under the Flood and Water Management Act 2010. This means they are responsible for coordinating the management of flood risk from various sources.

    Ealing has a high proportion of impermeable surfaces and reduced areas for storing water. This means that water can potentially overwhelm the local drainage network and cause flooding.

    Geobear's Subsidence Map shows that Ealing has particularly high levels of subsidence. However, these levels are lower than in Central and South London. Subsidence is present throughout the borough, meaning that the conveyancing searches are important.

    Ealing has low radon gas levels with a less than 1% chance. This means that radon should not be an issue.
