Can I ask does the below seem reasonable for a switch. I was expecting it to be a bit cheaper considering its the same solicitor we used for the original mortgage 2 years ago. Its based in Dublin if that makes any difference.

Outlays Land Registry Mortgage Registration fee Land Registry Vacate of Current Mortgage Fee for copy folio and filed plan Law Search fees to Dublin Law Searchers Limited Commissioner fees Same day electronic Transfer fees Fee to take up title document from lending Institution Professional Fee Office Outlays Vat at 23% Total

175.00 40.00 40.00 80.00 44.00 25.00 T.B.C. 750.00 150.00 207.00 1,511.00

I'd query what are "Outlays" €175 & what are "Office Outlays €150". Puch for the €175 to be taken out to reduce to €1,336.

No meself I didn’t go with them as I couldn’t find a way to contact them by email and my own solicitor was able to do every thing via email and post saving me taking time off work. Probably not in the best spirit of saving money but I was time poor

Just switching the mortgage. Contacted the solicitor we used when buying. Quote was 1347.50

Checked another one 2 streets away, 950 all in. Went with them, exchanged few emails, all fine. Meeting solicitor on Thursday.
