    Don't really know what you mean by "option".

    When you buy in England/Wales you have to pay a Land Registry fee based upon the price band the property is in - for £50K+ to £80K it is £80 and for £80K+ to £100K it is £130.

    There will also be a Land Registry Search which costs £4. Most properties only have one title.

    There will be Land Charges searches to check you are not bankrupt - generally if done on line £2 per name of mortgage borrower.

    Is there anything else you need to know about Land Registry Fees?


    I mean when you look on landregistry.co.uk there are a number of options in stage 1... it could be that i am being really thick and really dumb, in which case i'm sorry, but i don't understand which of those options i select to see how much it would be?

    Thanks

    Thanks IV565 thats helpful - hadn't thought about the bank payment charges. thanks :)
