These
will be your conveyancing costs and, depending on the
deal, maybe the sellers.
On
average, during 2006, conveyancing could cost
£390 for an £80,000house
purchase and £415 for an £120,000 purchase.
A
solicitor could charge you £350 plus VAT plus the Search
fees (c £100), Land Registry fees (c £100) plus
electronic bank transfer fees (check these with them).
Bear
in mind that your costs will be dependent on how expensive
a solicitors firm you use - rather than how good they
are. So think twice about using a blue blood firm with
a fancy address. It doesn't guarantee anything other than
a big bill.
TIP:
If you're buying in a major city you could save
money by using a country based solicitor. This
write did and the difference in costs and quality
of service was quite amazing
However
if you're buying in the country we suggest you use someone
in the same region, as they are more likely to understand
local influences and conditions.
