  • I think I've found a good solicitor/ agent. It would be good to hear what people have paid and / or been quoted for conveyancing fees, as a percentage of the purchase price. Reason for asking is I think a good relationship is probably worth paying over the odds for, but I am unsure what the odds are! So a bit of benchmarking would be interesting.

    FWIW I have been quoted 1.18% which should cover everything other than setting up the mortgage and paying the deposit... I think.

  • Hard to tell without knowing the property price but, assuming it's in London, that seems steep.

    The conveyancing isn't really a function of the property price. Twice the price isn't twice the work.

  • Cheers also. It's in Scotland so potentially not comparable to the experience of most on here. But as per my post above 700 for conveyancing doesn't seem excessive to me.
