Conveyancing fees:

Our fees cover all of the work required to complete the sale of your home. You can use our quote calculator below to give you an indication of the fees.

We are required to charge VAT. VAT is a government tax that we are required to charge, and will usually be added at 20% to our fees and disbursements, except where we indicate the disbursements are outside the scope of VAT. The fees listed are our average fee ranges for a sale transaction. The fee (including additional fees and disbursements) may vary depending on the source of the instruction, your solicitor’s experience and location, the property price and what work we are required to do.

Disbursement

Disbursements are costs related to your matter that are payable to third parties, such as management packs (if applicable). We handle the payment of the disbursements on your behalf to ensure a smoother process.

Please note the fee range will vary depending on the work required. Factors which may increase the fees charged include:

• • If the property is leasehold;

• • If there is a referral fee;

• • If you wish for us to expedite your transaction;

• • If we cannot meet you in person  and will need to complete an electronic ID check;

Time Duration

The length of time between instructing us (once receiving an offer on your property) to moving out of your property will depend on a number of factors. The average process takes 12-14 weeks.

It can be quicker or slower, depending on the parties in the chain and the timeliness of each party’s responses and returning documents. For example, if you are selling a property that is leasehold, we will need to apply for the management pack; this can take significantly longer depending on the timeframes of the individual management company. Another example would be if you are selling a property with structural issues such as subsidence, this can take significantly longer than 6-10 weeks and in such a situation, additional charges would apply.
