Our legal fees for residential conveyancing.

Moving home is one of the biggest financial decisions you'll make. We think you should know exactly what it costs before you pick up the phone. Our fees are fixed — no surprises, no extras buried in the small print. We can act in the conveyancing of residential properties up to a value of £2m.

What's included in
our legal fee.

Our legal fee covers all the usual conveyancing work from instruction to completion. It includes VAT, and it also includes all the typical third-party charges that many firms add on separately — bank transfer fees, dealing with your mortgage, obtaining your Land Registry title documents and identity checks.

The only costs that fall outside our legal fee are:

  • Land Registry registration fees (on a purchase)

  • Search fees (on a purchase)

  • Stamp Duty Land Tax (on a purchase, where applicable)

  • Fees charged by landlords or managing agents (on a leasehold property or a freehold with management company)

We do our best to make every quote as accurate as possible by finding out about your property before we give you a figure.
