Our fees cover all of the work required to complete the purchase or sale or re-mortgage, including registration at the Land Registry and payment of Stamp Duty or Land Tax if the property is in Wales.
Stamp Duty or Land Tax payable (on a purchase) will be additional to the price displayed and depends on the purchase price of your property. You can calculate the amount you will need to pay by using: Stamp Duty Land Tax Calculator or if the property is located in Wales by using: Calculate Land Transaction Tax | GOV.WALES
Disbursements are costs related to your matter that are payable to third parties, such as Land Registration fees and search fees. We handle the payment of the disbursements on your behalf to ensure a smoother process. The following will be additional to the price displayed as there are certain disbursements which are dependent upon the individual circumstances of the transactions or, for Leasehold purchases, set out in the individual lease relating to the Property. The disbursements which can apply, depending on the property you buy, are set out separately below. This list is not exhaustive and other disbursements may apply depending on the individual transaction. We will update you on the specific fees upon receipt of full information relating to the transaction. You should also be aware that for a Leasehold purchase, ground rent and service charge are likely to apply throughout your ownership of the property. We will confirm the ground rent and the anticipated service charge as soon as this we receive this information.
