What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Broseley? What am I being asked for?
To satisfy the Money Laundering Regulations any Broseley conveyancing firm will require proof of identity in all conveyancing matters. This is normally dealt with by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility account evidencing where you reside.
Under Money Laundering Regulations, property lawyers are obliged by law to investigate not just the identity of conveyancing clients but also the source of fund that they receive in respect of any matter. An unwillingness to disclose this will lead to your lawyer cancelling their retainer 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 Money Laundering Regulations.
I completed on my house on 13 October and the transaction details are still not registered. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Broseley expressed confidence that it will be recorded inside ten days. Are properties in Broseley particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Broseley registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can adjust subject to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any other persons or bodies. At present roughly three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to extensive hold-ups. Historically registration occurs after the purchaser is living at the property therefore 'speed' is not usually primary concern but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
