PURCHASE/SALE OF FREEHOLD OR LEASEHOLD RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY

Our fees cover all of the work required to complete the sale or purchase, including in the case of a purchase, dealing with registration at the Land Registry and dealing with the payment of Stamp Duty Land Tax (Stamp Duty).

FEES AND DISBURSEMENTS

Legal Fees

Our fees are normally based on the time spent in dealing with the transaction. Although most fees will be time-related, in assessing a fair and reasonable fee, it is not always appropriate to ignore other factors such as the value to you of work done and advice given. In assessing this, the following matters may be taken into account:-

(a) the value of the transaction;
(b) the complexity of the transaction;
(c) the timetable for the transaction.

Disbursements

Disbursements are costs related to your matter that are payable to third parties, such as (in the case of a purchase), property search fees, Land Registry fees and Stamp Duty. We handle the payment of the disbursements on your behalf to ensure a smoother process.

In the case of a leasehold property sales it may be necessary to obtain your landlord’s consent to the sale and if so a fee will be payable to the landlord’s solicitors for preparing a document containing such consent.
