We used Cooper Sons Hartley & Williams on Terrace Road in Buxton when we moved recently. can't remember how much it was but they are very good, quick & reliable.0

Do you mean all in including all disbursements or just the professional fees?
Make sure you are really comparing like with like.
No way you could get it done for £500 all in - with the cost of searches and Land Registry fees the solicitor would have to charge only about £200 plus VAT for his time and if you pay peanuts you know what you get.....RICHARD WEBSTER
As a retired conveyancing solicitor I believe the information given in the post to be useful assuming any properties concerned are in England/Wales but I accept no liability for it.0
