I am in need of a property lawyer. Do I opt for a nationwide conveyancer or a high street Anerley conveyancing solicitor?
Generally conveyancing solicitors in your neck of the woods will enjoy excellent relationships with your local authority, which could help with the Anerley conveyancing searches that your conveyancer will require on your transaction. It can only be a plus if they enjoy strong rapport with the Land Registry in your area Anerley, other lawyers in the area and Anerley selling agents.
In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Anerley? What am I being asked for?
To satisfy the Money Laundering Regulations any Anerley conveyancing firm will require proof of identity in all conveyancing transactions. This is normally satisfied by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility account showing where you live.
In accordance with Money Laundering Regulations, property lawyers are obliged by law to ascertain not simply the ID of conveyancing clients but also the origin of the money that they receive in respect of any matter. Refusal to disclose this will result in your conveyancer ending their retainer with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.
Your conveyancers are duty bound to make a disclosure to the relevant authorities should they believe that any monies received by them may contravene the Money Laundering Regulations.

Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier?

Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £245,000 and found one near me in Anerley I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Anerley suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan that many years will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.
