    I had an offer excepted at the end of April and my solicitor received the draft contract mid June, so took about 5 weeks

    A fair estimate if the solicitor is instructed on the day would be a week to issue contracts (that includes posting the papers to your client to complete, them returning them, then issuing the contract).

    Anything longer than that well....
