Stamp Duty - $30,000.00
mortgage fee - $500.00
payable to lawyer for stamp duty - $30,500.00
I just want to find whether it's a common practice for the lawyer to charge the add'l $500.00 fee? I know that we have legal fees to pay but to my understanding, all the legal fees should be settled upon completion of sale..
