THIRD-PARTY COSTS,
EXPLAINED CLEARLY

Disbursements are not legal fees  they’re costs paid to third parties during a transaction (for example, searches and Land Registry fees). This page explains what they are and when they apply.

What are disbursements?

Disbursements are payments your solicitor makes to third parties as part of the conveyancing process. They vary depending on the property, the transaction, and what’s already included within the auction legal pack.

The most common disbursements

Searches (where needed)

Checks such as local authority and environmental risk.

Land Registry fees

Payable for registration-related work, where applicable.

Bank transfer fees

For sending completion monies (where applicable).

ID/verification checks

Where required to comply with regulatory obligations.

Do auctions always include searches in the pack?

Sometimes searches are included in the auction pack, sometimes they are missing or out of date, and sometimes special conditions shift responsibility to the buyer. A pack review helps you understand what’s included and what risk you are taking on.
