Freeholder/Management Company Fees
If you are selling a leasehold property, the freeholder and/or the Management company will charge a fee to provide information which the buyer will require. This can vary from about £50.00 to £500.00. We cannot tell what this will be until they have been contacted.

Official Copy Documents
Sometimes, there will be documents held by the Land Registry which relate to the title. These usually cost £3.00 plus vat each to obtain, if you do not have copies with your deeds

Statutory Declarations
There are occasionally defects in title which can be dealt with by the preparation of a statutory declaration. Our fee for taking instructions, agreeing the terms and preparing the deed is £100.00 plus vat.

Insurance
Sometimes there are defects in title which can be dealt with by arranging suitable insurance. If we have to arrange insurance and place the policy on cover on completion, our fee is £50.00 plus vat. In addition, there will be an insurance policy premium. The cost varies on the type of risk which is to be insured. We would agree the cost with you before proceeding.

CHAPS Fees
There is no charge for issuing a cheque. If we have to make an electronic bank transfer, such as to pay the sale proceeds to you or to clear a mortgage the total cost of each transfer is £35.00 plus vat.
