The sellers of the house we are purchasing are using a conveyancing practitioner in Barrow In Furness who has recommended a preliminary contract with a down payment 6,000. Are such agreements sensible?
There are two primary drawbacks with entering into any lock out contract (occasionally termed a no-shop agreement) is that it diverts attention away from making progress with the conveyancing process, so unless it requires little or no negotiation then it may transpire to be a cause of frustration and delay. It is not particularly popular by Barrow In Furness conveyancing lawyers as a result. A further concern is the extent of the remedies available - an aggrieved purchaser is very unlikely to be granted an injunctive ruling by a court to bar the vendor completing the sale to a third party, so the only remedy available under the contract will be the recovery of wasted costs and, in restricted scenarios, the additional payment of damages.
In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Barrow In Furness? Why is this being asked of me?
It is indeed that case that these requests have nothing to do with conveyancing in Barrow In Furness. However these days you can not proceed with any conveyancing deal without first supplying evidence of your identity. This usually takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence and a council tax bill. Remember if you are providing your driving licence as proof of ID it needs to be both the paper element and photo card part, one is not acceptable without the other.
Proof of your source of monies is necessary in accordance with the Money Laundering Regulations. Don’t be offended when when this is requested of you as your conveyancing solicitor will need to have this information on record. Your Barrow In Furness conveyancing solicitor will need to see evidence of proof of funds before they are able to accept any monies from you into their client account and they may also ask additional questions regarding the origin of funds.
