Our Fees ( excluding VAT)
Our
charges vary with the cost of the property. Our guideline fees for each sale or purchase are:
Price Range | Guide
Fee | | |
| Up to £150,000 | £700.00 | | |
| £150,000 - £300,000 | £750.00 | | |
Above £300,000
| £850.00 | | |
An additional fee of £300.00
is charged on the sale or purchase of a leasehold apartment. This is because these transactions involve more work
and are much more complicated than others.
In order to proceed you will be asked to provide appropriate proof of your identity and address. Where we do
not meet you face to face, you will need to do this with a solicitor local to you, who will charge you direct (usually approximately
£30.00).
*Please
Note: these prices will normally apply in straight forward cases. However, where there are complicating factors
such as difficulties with title, multiple mortgages, protracted chain negotiations etc we may charge more.
Disbursements
We will request payment of disbursements in advance,
and fees and any duties must be paid on or before completion.
We will pay out several sums on your behalf, and these will be added to your account.
The cost of disbursements does vary. Sometimes not all are required,
and sometimes additional ones are required.
