Conveyancing Fees

This information is for illustration purposes only and does not represent a quote or estimate.

VAT is payable and charged at the current rate where applicable. For more information on VAT, please visit the HMRC website: https://www.gov.uk/vat-rates

Our fees include all work required to complete your transaction, including registration at the Land Registry and payment of Stamp Duty (if the property is in England) or Land Transaction Tax (if the property is in Wales).

If your matter becomes more complex than initially anticipated, we will contact you to agree any additional charges. Any fee increase is based on the hourly rate of the fee earner working on your transaction, as referred to in our initial letter confirming your instructions.

All work is undertaken by our experienced team.
