Here at Selvarajah & Co, we know that moving house can be extremely stressful experience and we are here to make it easier for you.
We have been dealing with Residential Conveyancing for over 31 years. Over the years with experience and knowledge we have tried our best to improve the way we deal with the matters and the way we provide service to our clients. We deal with the whole transaction when buying or selling residential property right from dealing with the estate agents (if any) to registering the transaction with the Land Registry.
We strictly follow, to the best of our ability the Conveyancing Rules and the practice guidelines of the Law Society. We deal with the following matters:
– Freehold Houses
– Leasehold properties
– Re-mortgages
– Lease Extensions
– Transfer of Shares by way of gift within family members
Of course as is required by the Law Society and the Law we follow the rules regarding money laundering and in this respect we endeavour to do all the checks that are necessary.
As identification of the client is important we require photographic identification like passports and driving licence. We would also ask for recent utility bills.
Our legal costs are as follows:
Our legal costs are based on various factors and mainly the value of the property.
If it is a small house with three bedrooms, we charge a fee between £600 to £800 plus VAT (if applicable).
If it is a large house worth several millions, then we would charge more and we would agree the fee with the client. We would make sure to charge something reasonable.
For all residential conveyancing matters we charge administrative expense fees between £75 – £100.
In addition to our fees there will be disbursements including:
– Search fees would depend on the quote we would get from the organisation that provides the searches.
– There is also Stamp Duty, the amount depends on the values of the property and also Land Registry fees’.
Bank transfer fee – £12 (unless changed by the bank)
