Having been out of the country for a while, have not only come back to a huge increase in property prices -my solicitor's fees have risen over 60% in the last 2 years.
Before I go complaining to him would be interested in some feedback as to whether the below is felt to be a fair price or not.
He has sent a cost estimate of over $1,300 (including GST) for settlement of our buying a (low value) property in an already set up Trust - he has all the documentation for this. There is a 6 week settlement date, so no urgency involved, our mortgage is approved, and there is no LIM for him to cast his eyes over.
In today's market is this a fair price??
