It's not about waiting for someone to offer a deal. In the wake of Brexit there are elections to decide the new prime minister. Article 50 will be triggered after the new prime minister has been chosen.

That's not what Leave said, and it's not what Cameron said.

He said that article 50 would be triggered very soon after the vote.

Depends on who gets in. There are three candidates in the Conservative leadership contest (it was five, but it's down to three now). May and Gove have indicated they would want to wait, but Leadsom has indicated she wants to get on with it.
