At Foys we deal with a variety of Residential Conveyancing matters including registered and unregistered Freehold and Leasehold sales and purchases, transfers and re-mortgages. We are on the panel for many lenders and can also act on behalf of the lender in the majority of cases. Our fees cover all of the work* required to complete the purchase of your new home including dealing with the registration at the Land Registry, dealing with the Stamp Duty Land Tax (Stamp Duty) if the property is in England, or Land Transaction Tax (Land Tax) if the property is in Wales and acting for your mortgage lender if required and if we are on their panel. Our costs are dependent on the property value and the complexity of the transaction.

Additional fees
Stamp Duty will be calculated during the transaction. Stamp Duty depends on the purchase price of the property. Higher Rate Stamp Duty is also payable on 2nd homes over the price of £40,000.00. A calculator for Stamp Duty fees can be found here or if the property is located in Wales by using the Welsh Revenue Authority’s website.
Land Registry – Our estimate is based on the property being registered and registration being available on the online portal. A calculator for Land Registry fees can be found at Click here
On some transactions a referral fee will be payable to the party who has referred you to us. This will be deducted from our fees and will be of no additional cost to you.

crucial documents we have requested from you not being provided; or
a requirement for the preparation of additional documents ancillary to the main transaction.
The transaction is concluded in a timely manner and no unforeseen complications arise.
All parties to the transaction are co-operative and there is no unreasonable delay from third parties providing documentation.
No indemnity policies are required. Additional disbursements may apply if indemnity policies are required.
