What are the conveyancing costs?
Wakefield 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 sell your property privately or using the internet?
You can sell your property in any way you choose but we advise you always to check the various costs involved and carefully to compare prices and what service you can expect for your money.
You should note that a traditional estate agent may expect you to pay a fee even if they don't manage to sell your property. It's always worth carefully inspecting the terms of your agreement before you go ahead and in particular you should note whether you have to give a notice period before terminating your agreement.
