    What are solicitors charging these days for buy n sell rates, is it the usual 1% or 1.5% of sale/buy price.

    Anyone offering a fixed price like M J O'Connor used to do.

    We got charged €900 ex VAT when we bought and it was a fixed fee.

    That obviously excluded PRA fees, searches, etc.

    It was Nolan, Farrell and Geoff we used and found them good. Jo Geary was the ladies name we dealt with

    I recently used a Marie Brody in Carlow on a number of matters. She answers calls and emails!

    Mega impressed....After first meeting she issued a document outlining work to be done, terms of business and costs. Only solicitor I saw do this. According to her it is proper legal policy and adherance to law society guidelines. I do feel I got professional service and value for money.

    Plus she is a member of this body. http://www.step.ie/. I have a matter to take up with a bank and she appears pretty knowledgeable and comfortable with the matter. She advised me at the outset if, on balance, the matter is not worth pursuing she will advise with reasons why. I liked that.

    PM for details
