Not sure if cheap necessarily means good!

I have some good solicitors who charge c. £450 + VAT plus disbursements so if you want to save £100, perhaps this is the answer. I know a firm that in the past has done them for £375+VAT but this was for bulk purchases.

if you want details, go to www.milleniaproperty.co.uk and contact me there

tks Matthew

James,

This may be a little late for your needs, but it's worth asking your financial guys if they have bulk deals with a solicitor or even postal-serivce. These tend to be very cheap indeed: my last property (Nov. 2006), excluding disbursments, came to £410 + VAT: RMNJ postal service. I appreciate its higher than some, but much more cost effective than poping into any high street solicitor.

Best wishes,

Regards,

Malik

Hi James,

By "postal service" they mean that there is no physical contact / communication with you other than through the post / email. All papers are sent recorded etc... AT a local level this excludes the cost of attesting documents, but overall the cost is cheaper than high streets. Hope this helps.

By far, the cheapest is the bulk daels which £-brokers have with solicitors / conveyancers.... For future buys, that what I will be using.

Regards, Malik

I have a deal with a solicitor for £499 all inclusive (inc. VAT). This is for a standard remortgage. Usual terms apply for anything out of the ordinary. If anyone is interested, I can fax them the form. They are OK as solicitors go and very good if price is your main consideration.
