I have just been quoted 769 for the legal fees on a 80k purchase, includes soliciter, searches, land reg, and bank charges.

I have now just been told that in (un-popular) deprived areas you can get away with not paying this.

Any truth in this.....Cheers

there's an exemption or lower rate of stamp duty in deprived areas, but at 80k that won't affect you anyway.

Haven't heard of anything else being reduced because of it
