Disbursements are costs paid to third parties on your behalf — things like Land Registry fees, search fees, and bank transfer charges. They're separate from our legal fee and will always be clearly itemised on your quote. We handle all disbursement payments on your behalf to keep the process as simple as possible.
Leasehold properties can carry additional third-party fees depending on the specific lease. These may include a Notice of Transfer fee (typically £50–£300), a Notice of Charge fee if the property is mortgaged (typically £50–£300), a Deed of Covenant fee provided by the management company (typically £75–£300), and a Certificate of Compliance fee confirmed on receipt of the lease (typically £50–£300).
These vary from property to property and we'll give you an accurate figure once we've seen your specific documents. Ground rent and service charge are also likely to apply during your ownership — we'll confirm these as soon as we receive the information.
Stamp Duty Land Tax in England, or Land Transaction Tax in Wales, may be payable depending on the purchase price and your circumstances.

Yes — we act for both buyers and sellers at commercial auction. Whether you're bidding on a lot or selling a commercial property through auction, our team can handle the legal side from pack review through to completion.
We carry out pre-auction pack reviews, so if you're serious about a lot, we can review the legal documents before auction day and flag any issues. This means you can bid with confidence, knowing exactly what you're taking on legally before the hammer falls.
Speed is critical once a lot is sold — completion is typically required within 28 days. We're experienced in working to auction timescales and will move quickly to make sure you don't miss your deadline.
All auction conveyancing enquiries can be directed through our standard contact form or by telephone on 02920 349820.
Every day an invoice goes unpaid, the harder it becomes to collect. Don't leave it any longer — get in touch today for a no-obligation conversation about your options.
