The answer to this will obviously vary according to the type of property you buy.
If you are buying a residential property the average price for legal fees in England and Wales is believed to be around £800 (not including VAT).
If you are buying a leasehold property you are likely to pay between £50 - £250 extra as solicitors must carry out more work on leasehold properties.
The way solicitors can charge you will also vary - some will offer you a fixed fee whereas some will charge you an hourly rate.
