Compare UK conveyancing quotes from vetted solicitors.

Typical residential conveyancing fees are £900 to £1,800 for a freehold purchase under £500,000, or £1,200 to £2,500 for leasehold or higher-value freehold. On top of legal fees you pay disbursements: Land Registry fees (£20 to £455 depending on price), local authority searches (£100 to £300), and Stamp Duty Land Tax based on the purchase price. We match you to firms who quote everything upfront, no surprise add-ons at completion.

A typical freehold purchase takes 8 to 12 weeks from offer accepted to completion. Leasehold purchases take 10 to 16 weeks because the freeholder management pack adds delays. Chain-free purchases can complete in 6 weeks. The firms we match you against publish their average turnaround so you can compare speed alongside price.

A solicitor is qualified to handle all legal matters, regulated by the SRA. A licensed conveyancer is a specialist who only does property work, regulated by the CLC. For straightforward residential transactions both deliver the same service. For complex cases (commercial, agricultural, listed buildings, unregistered titles) a solicitor is usually the safer choice. We include both on our panel and match by the complexity of your case.

Conveyancing is jurisdiction-specific. England and Wales operate under one Land Registry, Scotland under a separate system (Registers of Scotland), Northern Ireland under another (LRNI). We match you to firms qualified for your specific jurisdiction, and we surface firms with experience of your local authority's search peculiarities (some councils are notoriously slow, others fast).

Yes, and it is usually cheaper and faster. Most firms on our panel offer a "sale and purchase" combined fee at a discount versus two separate fees. We default to combined quotes if you tell us you are in a chain.
