Fixed-fee conveyancing is when a pre-agreed price is set for legal services. The price quoted at the start should be the price you pay at the end.
This fixed fee will not include any optional extras. Which is why fixed fee is not considered a cheaper conveyancing option. Your conveyancer should lay out the costs for any additional services in these instances.
Compare nowThe average solicitor fee for buying a house is £1,743, based on the average UK house price of £292,000. This fixed conveyancing fee covers the solicitor’s legal fee. Solicitor fees when selling a house would be around 50% less.
The fee is dependent on the value of the property and the location. Most solicitors will provide a full breakdown of their conveyancing fees. In some cases, they may include certain disbursements, although this is not guaranteed.
