Every property is different and it can be difficult to know what will happen in the course of the property transaction, but we do hope that the following fees indicate our potential costs and the excellent value for money in return for the local expert legal advice.

Sale and Purchase Fees

Protecting you legally when purchasing or selling a property is a serious business that requires genuine attention to detail. As we work to protect your legal position, we will also be engaging with other parties including the Land Registry, estate agents, mortgage advisors, and other solicitors.

We will also complete key services including the completion of searches, reviewing the mortgage documents, handling the sellers enquiries and advising on your contract documents. We leave no stone unturned because we have seen any and all eventually in dealing with Gloucestershire properties.
