Possible Additional Fees

(a) Our published Residential Conveyancing Fees are on the basis that your transaction proceeds in the usual way without undue difficulty. If any unforeseen problems occur which requires additional work then an extra fee will be charged to cover this. You will of course be advised as to the amount of this extra fee before the additional work is done for you. Examples of such additional work and an indication of the typical extra fees are:

(i) Obtaining Retrospective Vendor Consent for previous Building Work done without such required consent: £95.00 + VAT @ 20% (£19.00) TOTAL £114.00

(b) Should your transaction fail to complete then we will make a fair and reasonable charge according to the work done – e.g. if your transaction aborted:

1. After we had taken your instructions, opened your file, sent your Client Information Letter and dealt with our identity and address checks approximately 25% of our quoted fee would be payable.

2. After we had conducted all the usual pre-exchange work approximately 50% of our quoted fee would be payable. Sometimes if a quick completion is required we have to conduct the usual pre-completion work in advance before exchange of contracts. If this additional work is carried out then approximately 75% of our quoted fee would be payable.

Payment for any bills for abortive work is done within 28 days from the date of the bill.
