The examples given are for a typical standard freehold house purchase with a mortgage, or a sale with a mortgage to be redeemed. In both cases, with no complications. A higher or lower charge may apply if your instruction involves, for example, a higher or lower priced property, an apartment, a management company, shared ownership, help-to-buy, – unregistered title, gifts from a third party, preparing a trust deed.

We will always give you an individual cost estimate tailored to the personal circumstances of your sale or purchase.

Unforeseen complications, not known at the outset may be discovered as your sale or purchase progresses. We will provide you with a list of these items and we will always tell you promptly if any of these items should come up. Please see the below list headed TQ Law Additional Charges.

We will quote the rate of VAT current at the time of providing you with an estimate.

Disbursements including Stamp Duty

In addition to legal fees we will charge for disbursements. These are items paid to third parties on your behalf relating to the matter, for example stamp duty when buying a house.

For a typical First Time Buyer purchase with a mortgage, with no complications, the cost of disbursements would be:

• Property Searches £166 (to include local authority, coal mining and water & drainage searches)
• Land Registry Searches £50
• Land Registry registration fee £100
• Stamp Duty Land Tax £0

The rates of stamp duty change with each Budget announcement and your circumstances. You can calculate what the current stamp duty payable on your purchase might be, using the following websites

www.tax.service.gov.uk/calculate-stamp-duty-land-tax/#/intro

https://lttcalculator.wra.gov.wales/

For a typical sale with a mortgage and no complications, the cost of disbursements would be:

Copy documents from Land Registry £50

Disbursements may vary for each customer as they depend on individual circumstances, and what arises during the transaction.

We will always give you an individual cost estimate tailored to the personal circumstances of your sale or purchase.

If the property is an apartment or has a management company involvement our standard charges as above will apply however there will be an additional legal fee of £380 plus vat due to the additional work involved with these transactions.

Please also note that if the property is leasehold or freehold with an amenity charge the landlord and/or management company will probably also charge as follows: –

• Notice of Transfer- the fee can be between £250-£300 plus VAT per notice (they may charge an additional fee if we also need to serve a notice of charge)
• Deed of Covenant fee- this can typically range between £250-£300 plus VAT and it is possible that more than one Deed of Covenant may be required.
• Certificate of Compliance fee – again this can vary between £250-£300 and more than one may be required.

These fees vary from property to property and it is unlikely we will be able to provide them at the time of instruction. We will however provide an accurate figure once we have received the documentation to enable us to do so.

Referral arrangements

We have referral arrangements with a number of estate agents and brokers. If we pay a referral fee, we will tell you.

For a typical standard freehold purchase, the referral fee will on average be £125. Our standard charges are amended where you are a customer referred to us by an internet referrer such as but not limited to  Fix My Legals, Conveyancing Index, Movin Legal or Easy choice. Please contact us for a detailed quote in these circumstances.

TQ Law Additional Charges Schedule – Unforeseen Occurrences

Certain unforeseen and time-consuming contingencies can come up in a transaction in which case we have to charge extra as set out below. We will notify you as and when these arise and tell you the additional cost. Where your referrer has already agreed a fee scale with you for additional items, these items will be deemed incorporated into this Schedule and will take priority in the event that the item already appears below
