PROPERTY SALE

Basis for fees – Our fees cover all of the work required to complete the sale of your home. 

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. 

Legal Fee – 

• Low complexity – from £800 to £1,500 + VAT
• Mid complexity – from £1,500 to £4,000 + VAT
• High complexity – in excess of £4,000 + VAT (certain high-value or highly complex transactions could cost up to £100,000 + VAT)

Referral fee (if any) – We may pay average referral fee of £150. This fee will vary depending on the source of the instruction 

Disbursements (third party costs) – 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 smooth process. Please note the fee range will vary depending on the work required. Factors which may increase the fees charged include:
