RESIDENTIAL CONVEYANCING PRICING
The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) requires that we provide pricing information in relation to certain types of work, including in relation to the sale or purchase of a residential property.
Our fees are calculated on a sliding scale based on the sale or purchase price. The range of our base legal fees for your transaction will typically be from £595 plus VAT (of £119) – £8,000 plus VAT (of £1600). A typical example of our fees for a freehold purchase is as follows:
- Freehold purchase at a purchase Price of £300,000
- Fee Estimate: £755 plus vat and disbursements
This is an example and you should contact us to obtain a detailed quote based on your specific requirements.
