Length of time house has to be for sale before can go sale agreed

[Passport1]

Is there a legal requirement that a house for sale via private treaty has to be on the market for sale and open for viewings for a minimum period of time (e.g. 2 weeks) before it can go sale agreed ?

Thanks

No, it can go sale agreed straight away, no reaon to wait.

We had our property on the market and went sale agreed within 10 days.
Had offers from 4 parties, 2 were really interested but one REALLY wanted it, so we agreed a price with him.

I'm not ware of any legal requirement for length of time?
It's your home, so upto you I would have thought?

A relation of mine bought a house as the estate agent was putting up the for sale sign. Some houses get sold before the estate agent advertises.
