Fees for Professional Property Services

We are chartered surveyors in Clitheroe and specialise in market town property and countryside issues. We are proud to offer a range of professional property services in Lancashire and across the North West.

Professional Work

Do you need a surveyor or any of our other professional property services? Our charges are normally £80.00 to £150/hour, plus VAT at the prevailing rate and disbursements. The fees for our professional property services also depends on the experience of the professional and the complexity of the issues.

Please note for agricultural matters, that if you are an NFU member you may be eligible for discounted fees.

Property Valuations

Charges will be agreed prior to commencement where possible, due to the complex and individual nature of each property concerned.

Looking To Sell Your Property?

The commission for sales varies depending on the type of property and method of sale (Auction, Tender, Private treaty). However, as a general rule, it is between 1 – 1.5% + VAT of the sale price (subject to minimum fee of £500). There is also the agreed advertising costs and VAT at the prevailing rate.
