How Public Holidays Impact Property Transactions
Public holidays can create challenges for property transactions, particularly for settlements that are scheduled to occur on these dates. Here are a few considerations:
- Bank Closures: Banks are closed on public holidays, which can delay fund transfers and settlements. Planning ahead is crucial to avoid disruptions.
- Reduced Business Hours: Many businesses, including legal offices and government agencies, operate on reduced hours around public holidays. This can impact the availability of critical services.
- Extended Deadlines: In some cases, contract deadlines may automatically extend to the next business day if they fall on a public holiday. It’s essential to understand how this could affect your transaction timeline.
