not on land registry

[scoobydoo1]

hi long story short, my mum passed away last year, i have the probate, my question is ive just found out my mother isnt registered on the land registry, i,m assuming as she took over the house after her husband passed away it wasnt a requirement back then to register it on land registry, ....so how easy is it to do it my self rather than getting a solicitor, i,m currently the executor of the will, and want to buy out 1 of my sisters share of house, so i will own 66% and my other sister will own 33%, what forms do i need to register on land registry for first time, i was quoted over 1.5k if i go through solicitors, (i did probate myself online and it was pretty easy) i,m finding doing first land registry a bit daunting

also can someone confirm i got a quote from solictors which says this as one of their breakdowns

Land Registry Registration Fee £230.00
First Registration Fee £180

why is there 2 fees for land registry, and are they correct, as i,m buying one of my sisters out for just 45k under scale 1 fees it shows £45 for 0 to 80k
or do they take into account the total current value of the house? if so between £100,001 to £200,000 is £230

just wondering why they charging £180 plus £230 just to first time register on land registry

any one have ideas ? or had similer charges for first time registering on land register

You have answered your question how easy this is for you to do: you are finding it daunting.

Ask the solicitors for clarification about the 2 Land Registry fees in their quote.

Yes I find it daunting hence the question how easy is it do yourself and what forms are needed for not being on land registry
