@bloor@bloor.tw I guess your solicitor is kinda treated as your agent, so has your authorisation to do stuff on your behalf. But yes, very weird and I never thought about that before.

@steve@mastodon.nexusuk.org @bloor@bloor.tw probably because (England & Wales property transactions) it's supposed to be the date of exchange of contracts, which if there is a chain can be a nightmare for the solicitors to coordinate everybody to sign all on the same day.
