Legal Fees for Residential and Commercial Property
Conveyancing fees cover legal work for buying, selling, or remortgaging a residential property.
Commercial property transactions and leases start from £1500.00.
Residential Conveyancing Costs vary based on property price, type, and mortgage details:
Fixed legal fees: From £1025.00

Expedited or Simultaneous Exchange and Completion
It is standard practice to have 6 working days between exchange and completion.
However, we want you to have the option to shorten this timeframe.
For £149.00 + VAT, we can exchange and complete for you in under 5 working days.
For £199 + VAT, we can exchange and complete your transaction on the same day (simultaneous). Please let your conveyancer know what you would prefer.
Avoiding Hidden Charges
Most law firms list additional fees in their T&Cs. Some solicitors charge hourly rates, making budgeting difficult.
At RG Law, we work on a fixed-fee basis.
However, until we review your property title, we do not know what issues can arise. If there is extra work required such as a restriction or a covenant you will be notified of the additional work required and the cost of that work.
Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) is a tax imposed on property purchases in England and Northern Ireland. The amount payable depends on the purchase price, property type, and whether the buyer qualifies for any reliefs.
Non-refundable deposit and No Sale No Fee
RG Law charges a non-refundable file opening fee when a client opens a conveyancing transaction with us. This fee covers the initial administrative work involved in setting up the file, including compliance checks and preliminary legal work.
Our 'no sale, no fee' promise means that your conveyancer or solicitor handling your matter will not charge you for their legal fees if your property falls through, through no fault of your own.
We will not charge a second file opening fee when we start a new transaction. However, the second transaction will no longer be on a no-sale, no-fee basis, meaning that legal fees will be payable even if the transaction does not complete. This approach ensures that clients receive some flexibility when their first transaction fails while maintaining fairness in covering the costs of legal work undertaken. 1. Exclusions: While legal fees are waived, clients may still need to pay for certain disbursements or third-party costs incurred during the process (e.g., searches, bank transfer fees). 2. Common Causes for a Sale Falling Through: Buyer or seller pulls out. Issues with the property, such as unfavourable search results. Mortgage applications being declined. Problems in the property chain. 3. Advantages: Reduces financial risk for clients. Encourages clients to engage conveyancers with confidence. This arrangement is popular with first-time buyers or sellers who might be apprehensive about the financial implications of a failed transaction. Key Points: RG+ We are proud to provide our warranty RG+ that can cover out of pocket expenses on your first transaction which enables you to claim a percentage of your valuation, building survey fees and get
