In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Bishop Auckland? Is this really necessary?
In order to comply with Money Laundering Regulations any Bishop Auckland conveyancing firm will require evidence of your identity in all conveyancing transactions. This is usually satisfied by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility bill evidencing where you live.
Under Money Laundering Regulations, property lawyers are duty bound to check not only the identity of conveyancing clients but also the origin of fund that they receive in respect of any matter. Refusal to disclose this will lead to your conveyancer ending their relationship with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.
Your property lawyers are duty bound to make a disclosure to the relevant authorities should they consider that any amounts received by them may contravene the Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Bishop Auckland. Before I set the wheels in motion I require certainty as to the number of years remaining on the lease.
If the lease is registered - and most are in Bishop Auckland - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
