Hi There,

If your buying a property it is the conveyancing service that you require and although I coudn't really give a breakdown of the costs you are listing I would say that a good quote for the total price of the process should be no more than about £800. Bear in mind that if you buy at over £125,000 you will also incur stamp duty costs ( a kind of property tax ) which equates to 1% of the purchase price of the property.
Have you managed to sort a decent mortgage for your new property ?
If not I will be happy to help, just PM me if you wish.
