fratelli Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Can anybody who has recently bought a hoose let me know roughly how much I can expect to pay a solicitor for conveyancy? We have no house to sell and wouldn't be paying stamp duty... It's been a long time since I last bought a house so I expect it to more than I remember!

Guest CyprusPluto Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 It cost me £850 just 2 months ago, but prices will depend on the land registry position of the property. I understand solicitors on the mainland are somewhat cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

engineer21 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 i paid £1900 not including a survey 4 mnths ago, purchase price £155,000if not paying stamp duty your purchase price must be less than £125,000 so reckon you will be looking at £1500 fees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CyprusPluto Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 The £850 didn't include the stamp duty, but all the legal stuff and fees for a purchase price in excess of £200k. No survey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
