How much does moving cost
Discussion
Looking at selling my property and actually shocked as to the price of selling it my god!
House is worth 120k. Fees look to be in the region of about 3 thousand pounds to sell :/. How can i make this cheaper? Purple bricks seems to save a bit but still costly and not heard great things about them.

If you look on right move there is a calculator. Don't forget the stamp duty on the new place and the solicitors fees.

Compared to all the other stuff a proffesional removal team and van are a bargain. Worth every penny.

Bloody hell. To move to my house (buy only) would, they say, cost £32k.https://www.rightmove.co.uk/cost-of-moving-house.h...

We moved 2 yrs ago and the calculator was about right, removal team a little cheaper. Still eye-watering though.
Not sure I agree on the dislike of Purple Bricks. Yes they’re cheap but for a reason and if you’re in an area that sells well then these sort of agents are a godsend for reduced fees. If there’s more work needed to market your house then paying full whack with a local established agent is worth the extra fees though.
Horses for courses I reckon.
Totally agree. Takes a special kind of idiot to think they’re superior because their small house in the SE is worth more than someone else’s much more spacious house elsewhere.

Whereabouts does a house have to be to be worth £120K?
Pretty sad low blow you rich snobby idiot. Personally if I was selling I wouldn't use a high-street agent. I've had too much second-hand experience of them when friends have been selling and by and large they appear to provide absolutely no value add; especially when you consider their massive fees.
I don't know which of the online agents is best, but I think they're all far better value than the conventional ones.
Although I live in the south so estate agent fees are utterly dwarfed by stamp duty anyway.

Actually you can get a decent 3 bed detached needing some modernisation up north near me. Also you get 3 bed terraced houses selling for 55k and renting out at 550 a month. Nit everyone lives in the surrounding London bubble.

It's 32k cause you have a posh drum, miles from anywhere.

It's actually not. It's simply the SDLT that fks all of us when buying at the 'wrong' end of the market.We moved 2 yrs ago and the calculator was about right, removal team a little cheaper. Still eye-watering though.
