At present buying a house as an investment. As part of the financing I am topping up my mortgage by 70 k on my private mortgage. The solicitor tells me that this top up mortgage is additional work for him and in charging me €540 extra plus costs on top of the original conveyancing fee agreed. This seems excessive to me as I checked with the bank and they say he needs to stamp the deeds and check deeds. These deeds have already been checked by solicitor when I bought house a number of years ago. Is this a fair price? Is there anyway I can compare this price to others?
