Upto 6 months, depends on what the survey reveals, if additional surveys or repair quotes are required. Also searches and enquiries may take a while and we've Christmas/ New Year coming up.

Your solicitor is best places to guide you as they know how quickly information is being turned round.

In theory if the application is in, they should have an offer next week. Its then down to their solicitors and yours and that should take maybe 2-3 months.

Then it comes down to the legal side of things - local searches, solicitors enquiries. 

3 months for a freehold property is about standard. 

Has probate been granted?
