It is difficult to be precise because it depends on the content of the will, the type of assets comprised in the estate, the amount of time taken and correspondence generated, and whether there are any complicating factors. We will give you an estimate of the likely overall cost at the start of the process, and will tell you if the process becomes more complicated than was first anticipated. As a rough guide you will be advised to budget for typical costs at 1.5 % of the gross value of the estate (before inheritance tax has been paid) to obtain a Grant of Probate, plus a similar amount for the costs of dealing with and completing the administration.

Exchange of Contracts is when the transaction becomes binding. Up until this point there is no legal contract in place, but once you reach this stage - the buyer must pay the deposit (usually around 10% depending on the mortgage amount). Upon the exchange of contracts, the completion date will be decided and once fixed this cannot be changed. This process happens between the solicitors representing the purchaser and vendor, so you do not need to be present. Copy FAQ Link Copied!
