What are the conveyancing costs?
Christchurch Conveyancing Solicitor fees dramatically vary depending on whether you approach an online conveyancing solicitor, a high street conveyancer or housing solicitors introduced by your estate agent.
The actual conveyancing costs, outside of the legal work, should be fixed as they are set including:
For buyers: stamp duty, land registration, property searches, ID searches and leasehold charges (if buying a leasehold property).
For sellers: office copies, title plan and management information (if selling a leasehold property).
It is important to make sure when budgeting the costs of moving home that you factor in all of the above conveyancing costs and ensure you get a fixed fee conveyancing quote from your chosen local solicitors or licensed conveyancer.
Whether you're a cash buyer or buying with a mortgage solicitors are key to the whole process, making the right choice critically important.

Can you pull out after exchange of contracts?
In simple terms, you can pull out after exchange of contracts, whether you're a buyer or a seller, but the law in England and Wales treats these sides very differently.
As a buyer, you can only exchange if you've transferred your deposit monies into the seller's solicitor's account. This is normally 10% of the property's selling price although a lower percentage can be agreed with the seller. If you pull out, you stand to lose 10% of the selling price under the law, even if you paid over an agreed deposit of less than 10%. The seller can also sue for losses resulting from the breach of contract.
As a seller, you could be sued for losses resulting from breach of contract. So from a buyer's perspective, they might sue the seller for items like mortgage costs (product fee, valuation fee etc.), survey costs and any deposit paid over for removals.
Therefore there are consequences for pulling out after exchange of contracts, however these clearly fall more heavily on the buyer pulling out rather than the seller.
