Hi Ferry. We are using the equity from our property to pay all our fees (your solicitor can advise). I think the only things I'm paying for upfront is the valuation and local searches.
You'll need to budget:
EA fees, ie 1.5% of your sale £235K = £3,525 + VAT
Solicitors fees, approx £1300
Stamp duty 1% of £200K = £2K
Any mortgage fees, redemption fees
Removal company fees
Can't think of anything else.......0 -

You should be able to negotiate a fee of 1% - 1.25% if you try hard enough.0
