For most existing homeowners who are buying more shares, there are some costs involved, so it makes sense to understand these to help you decide if buying a bigger share is a right for you.
What are the costs involved?
The main cost is for the extra share you are buying, but you will also need to pay for:
- a valuation report from a RICS surveyor
- mortgage lender’s fees for arranging extra borrowing on your mortgage
- solicitor’s fees for legal work involved
- Stamp Duty - if you need to pay this, your solicitor will let you know
