Fees and Disbursements
Most of our work in residential conveyancing is carried out on a fixed fee basis which depends on the type and value of the transaction involved. Please use our quote builder if you require an estimate of costs and also click below for the Additional Fees List.
Leasehold Property Notice Fees
If the property you are buying is leasehold there are often notice fees payable to the landlord. For flats, there may be fees for information, dealing with Deeds of Covenant or transfer of shares payable to the landlord and/or Management Company. There may be a Certificate of Compliance fee. Such fees vary quite widely and cannot be confirmed until we have information from the deeds and/or the fee is confirmed by the person or Company to whom the fees are to be paid.
Timescales
It is not possible to give an estimated timescale for when a transaction will complete as there are a number of factors that will determine this. On average a residential conveyancing transaction takes between eight and twelve weeks. We will discuss completion dates and realistic timescales with you throughout your matter to keep you fully informed of progress and any potential delays.
