Residential purchase quote

A few quick questions, a step at a time, with your details last. Your itemised quote, with every cost, opens as soon as you send the form. No account needed.

Not the quote you need? Choose a different one.

No law firm on our panel covers property in Northern Ireland at the moment. You can still get a quote, and if you ask to go ahead, we tell you whether a firm can act for you before we pass your details to anyone.

The property
Where are you up to? (optional)

The house or flat number or name, and the street, such as Flat 3, 12 High Street. Not found one yet? Choose "Still looking for a property" above instead.

The law firm needs the full address to order the searches and act for you.

Not found a property yet? Use a postcode in the area.

We give quotes for England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The taxes and some of the law differ between them.

Tenure

Check the listing or ask the estate agent if unsure.

Shown on the lease, the listing or the landlord's paperwork. Leave blank if you do not know.

The buyers
Number of buyers
Full name of each buyer

As on their passport or driving licence. The law firm checks the identity of each person.

Are you buying through a company?

Such as a limited company. A company has its own checks and tax rates, and is never a first-time buyer, so the questions about that do not apply.

Are all the buyers first-time buyers?

None of you has owned a home before, in the UK or abroad.

Will any buyer own another home once this purchase completes?

In the UK or abroad, including a buy-to-let or a share of a home. Higher rates of property tax usually apply.

Is this replacing your main home?

Answer yes if your current main home is sold before or on the day this purchase completes. The higher rates then do not apply.

Has any buyer spent fewer than 183 days in the UK in the last 12 months?

Extra checks apply, and in England and Northern Ireland a 2% Stamp Duty surcharge. Answer no if that buyer is buying with their husband, wife or civil partner, who is UK resident and lives with them: both then count as UK resident.

The purchase
Are you buying with a mortgage?

Answer yes for Islamic home finance too, such as a home purchase plan.

Is it Islamic finance, such as a home purchase plan?

Sharia-compliant home finance, such as Ijara, Diminishing Musharaka or Murabaha, in place of a mortgage that charges interest. Your conveyancer also works with the provider's own documents, so an Islamic finance admin fee is added to your quote.

Some lenders only work with certain firms, so this helps us match you.

As it appears on your mortgage offer or statement.

Is any of the deposit a gift?

From family or a friend. The law firm checks where the money comes from.

Are you using a Lifetime ISA or a Help to Buy ISA?

Your conveyancer claims the money for you.

Does anything unusual apply?

Such as a new build, shared ownership, an auction, sitting tenants or a management company. Each can change the work or the tax.

Which of these apply? (optional)

Tick each one that applies.

The property

The purchase

Money and paperwork

For example a septic tank, a flying freehold or a property overseas.

Shared ownership shares usually start at 10% or 25%.

Your details

So we can save your quote and send it to you.

Your details are safe with us. No law firm or other company is given them to contact you unless you ask us to, and we never pass them to anyone for their own marketing. Ask us to delete them at any time and we will, unless we have a legal reason to keep them.

We email your quote to you, with its PDF.

So our team, and the law firm if you go ahead, can call you about your quote.

How should we contact you?

Tick one or both.

Add a note for us (optional)

For example a deadline, a chain or an unusual feature of the property. Please leave out health or other sensitive details unless they affect the work.

Need help with a survey or removals too? (optional)
Would you also like help with any of these? (optional)

For each one you tick, we contact you about it, for that service only. If we introduce you to a provider, it may pay us a fee for the introduction; you are free to use anyone else.

Free, with no obligation to instruct.

By pressing See my quote, you agree to our terms and confirm you have read our referral disclosure.

Our website terms apply when you ask us for a quote or an introduction, and our privacy notice explains how we use your details.

  • No surprise fees: your law firm works to your quote
  • No completion, no fee: no legal fee if your move falls through
  • You pay us nothing, and anything a law firm pays us is never added to your bill.
