how much to change title deeds

cheepskate_2

Hi

Wondering if anyone can give a rough guide.

want to take some of neigbours garden, so moving the boundary fence.Straight forward and taking about 20 ft.
Wondering if anyone can give a rough guide on the price of changing both (i assume) title deeds and if there is anything else to take into account .

Just in case , the neigbours know about it and are in agreement.

thank for any advice

You *might* be better off posting this in the Mortgage forum, where the brokers may have a better idea as they deal regularly with solicitors.
You will have to officially have the plans redrawn for botrh properties and this needs to be registered with the land registery AND the neighbour who is giving the land up should inform his mortgage co (if he has a mortgage), as it may affect his security in relation the value of house (LTV) as it would have a detrimental effect on the value.

My partner is an Independent mortage broker and it is she who informed me of all of this.

Phone the Land Registry, they can offer free advice too. Sounds like you'll need to get a surveyor involved really.
