The cost of a discharge is not a large expense. The registration dues amount to £60 in every case.The fee charged by a solicitor should not be substantial but it will vary from one firm to the next - my firm charges £200 + VAT for this service, totalling £300 with the registration fees. These figures may change in the future. Most of the lenders will not deal with anyone other than a solicitor and, in any event, it is essential to ensure that the discharge is properly framed. As Alliance & Leicester is part of Santander Group, the discharge will not be a straightforward document so it is unlikely that anyone would be able to draft it correctly without conveyancing experience.

They've been very good to work with, came back quickly if we asked any questions and always raised any points they feel we should look at.
