The lawyer who helped my last purchase has given a fee calculation of £1200 for fixed fee conveyancing in Clare. I’m selling a modern detached home for £250,000. Are the quoted fees excessive? Is it in excess of what I should be paying for conveyancing in Clare?
The charges are a little high. If you shop around you might shave off some of the expense by say £100 plus VAT. On the other hand, you couldlive to regret choosing an a cheaper conveyancer. Don't forget to enquire that the firm can act for your bank.

IfI were to purchase a freehold propertyin Clare mortgage fee and have no survey and no conveyancing searches how much could I expect to to save on my conveyancing in Clare?
The only reduction in fees you would make on is the Clare conveyancing searches. A solicitor still got to do everything else - money laundering, communicating with the sellers lawyer, stamp duty submission, register the ownership etc. A slight saving might be made by not having to register a charge however it won't be meaningful.

How does conveyancing in Clare differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Clare contact us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because developers in Clare typically buy the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Clare or who has acted in the same development.
