Why do you think there is a "right to park in one of the six designated spaces provided by the lease"? The fact that spaces are physically present does not, in itself give such a right and, as you say, the lease is silent on parking rights. If such a right exists (which I think is doubtful) the questions you need the answer to are "does the lease contain a provision for the management company (not the landlord unless they are one and the same) to make new regulations and, if so, is there any procedural provision to be complied with and, if so, has it been complied with?"

The time that it takes to exchange contracts on a house purchase can vary greatly. Factors that can affect the time taken to exchange contracts can include the living situation of those selling the property (an empty property will be more readily available), the firm dealing with the sale and financial factors. Some buyers may ‘drag their heels’ in a purchase by way of accumulating funds, and some sellers may cause delays if they are waiting for the purchase of a future home.

Once contracts are exchanged, the time taken to complete is more predictable. It usually takes approximately 2-4 weeks to complete once contracts have been exchanged. It is sometimes possible to exchange and complete in one day, though this is not always advisable as it may encourage the seller to make final demands and urgency is not the most secure way to complete on the purchase.

On the day of exchange, the buyer and seller enter a legally binding contract of terms for the purchase. On the day of completion, the purchase settlement payments will be transferred, the seller will have fully vacated and the keys will be ready for collection from the solicitor or estate agent.
