Scotland. A sell and a buy. £1600 plus costs per transaction, so £3200...

My old and good chap retired last year - who charged us a more reasonable £600.

Anyone in Scotland know someone who is ok but not such dafty money....?

Duncanmacallum off here recommended Derek Laburn for us when we bought last year. Just over £600 to buy iirc.
We didnt meet him, he’s in Stranraer, we’re 75 miles East near Dumfries. We did have to go into a local Solicitors to prove our identitiy, which was £30ish iirc.

Derek Laburn, Rankin & Aitken.

Not sure about cheap, but Jackie Brunsdon @ Leslie Deans is who I use.

Would recommend Dave Marshall at Neilsons in Edinburgh or Struan Douglas (used to be Purdie &Co now at Coulter's.

If you find that anyone in your chain is using Monarch Legal then insist they change solicitors.
