I think you’re stressing unnecessarily. Searches do take a little while to come back. There’s a lot involved in the ‘searches’. Your Solicitor will be writing to all and sundry and will have to wait for the replies. So 3 weeks is quite reasonable…exciting times ahead. And it’s a probate sale. Say no more. Good luck in your new home.

We managed to sell our house on the 10th of June then finally found our new home on the 15th of July, we put an offer in and it was excepted a couple of days later, it’s a probate sale and they excepted our offer on condition the house stayed on the market. This rang alarm bells but we took it, we love the place.

We are now waiting for the searches to go through, they’ve taken 3 weeks now is that normal?, and our solicitor hasn’t yet received the draft contract.

Am I stressing to soon, should I chase ?, everyone in our chain is desperate to get moving including us !
