Within the normal range of house buying and selling, I expect to work as hard for you whether the price is £150,000, £300,000 or £450,000; so, for sales and purchases up to £500,000 value my fees are:
Freehold Sales £1,300
Leasehold Sales £1,650
Freehold Purchases £1,500
Leasehold Purchases £1,850
For very low value transactions, such as buying a bit of garden from a neighbour, I will assess the complexity and advise accordingly, but expect at least a £500 fee.
For higher value properties, a fee estimate would be to add £125 for each extra £100,000 on the price.
If the property is unregistered there will be an additional roughly £300-£500 depending on the complexity of the title.
Bank transfers are charged at £25 each.
Commercial property sale and purchase fees start with the residential fees above plus £200 (for higher insurance levies), but will then vary according to complexity.
VAT at 20% is added on all those charges.
There will be standard additional charges for Land Registry fees, Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) on purchases, electronic identity checks. Please ask for a full quote so you have all the figures for your budget. If you want to check the SDLT you can start with using the government calculator at Calculate Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT)
