Our typical timeframes and service standards
We are regulated by the Council for Licensed Conveyancers (CLC), which means we’re required to publish transparent information about our prices and services. That’s not just a tick-box for us—it’s how we work anyway.
Our Fees
All transactions are different and we tailor our estimate to your circumstances and the circumstances of your transaction. We have included a general idea of the costs for a typical standard transaction below.
For the most accurate estimate, please contact us for a bespoke estimate tailored to your transaction.

In addition to the costs above, we charge:
- £25 + VAT per person per transaction for identity checks
- £39 + VAT for each payment we need to make from our Client Account. There will always be at least one, but we recommend budgeting for two per transaction.
For purchase transactions, we charge £350 + VAT for ordering and reporting on the searches. This includes a local search, drainage search, environmental search and planning search.
Coal searches are charged at £65 + VAT if required.
What’s Included
Your estimate covers the cost of a standard legal process including:
-
Preparing or reviewing and reporting on title documents, searches, and contracts
-
Checking mortgage offers and acting for your lender
-
Managing enquiries and correspondence with agents, brokers and solicitors
-
Preparing the final report and handling exchange/completion
-
Registering your ownership with HM Land Registry

Timeframes
Most transactions take 12 to 16 weeks from instruction to completion. However, timeframes depend on many factors, including:
-
The speed of responses from other parties in the chain
-
Mortgage readiness
-
Search turnaround times (some local authorities can take several weeks)
-
Whether it’s a leasehold or shared ownership property
We’ll keep you updated throughout. No chasing required—we’ll tell you what’s happening, when it’s happening.
How We Work
We take on fewer cases so we can give you a personal, proactive service.
You’ll get:
-
A named conveyancer with a direct phone number and email
-
Regular updates at each stage
-
Fast responses—usually same day or next working day
-
Clear explanations in plain English, not legal waffle
We're efficient because we use smart tech—but we're human first. And if something needs chasing, we’ll be on it before you ask.
Potential Additional Fees
These will only apply if relevant to your case, and we’ll always confirm them in advance.
