London overtaken by Scotland as the fastest place to sell a home

Scotland has overtaken London as the fastest place for a seller to find a buyer for their home. In 2014, it took 36 days in London on average to secure a buyer, but this rose to 60 days by last year, according to new figures reported by the BBC. In contrast, the average time to secure a buyer fell from 66 days to 41 days over the same period in Scotland.
