Thank you for looking at our property services. Whether you are a first-time buyer or a property portfolio owner, we are here to take the stress out of buying a property.
We typically work on a fixed fee basis, so that from the outset you know what the fees and costs will be for your transaction. If during the transaction there is a new development, we will discuss the change in fees with you and agree a way forward. This would typically occur if you changed your instructions, or your case involves an unforeseen complexity.
Our fees cover all the standard work required to complete the purchase of your new property, including dealing with registration at the Land Registry and dealing with the payment of Stamp Duty Land Tax (Stamp Duty) if the property is in England, or Land Transaction Tax (Land Tax) if the property is in Wales.
VAT, currently 20%, will be payable on all our fees and some disbursements, and we will clearly confirm which disbursements carry VAT in our formal quotation or as we advise you to incur them.
