I am acquiring a new build duplex in Castle Vale and my conveyancer is informing me that she is duty bound to the mortgage company to disclose incentives from the developer. The Estate Agents are hassling me to exchange and I don't want to delay deal. is my lawyer playing by the book?

You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your property lawyer. A precondition to being on a bank panel is to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements. The CML Conveyancing Handbook requires that your lawyer have the appropriate Disclosure of Incentive form completed by the developer and accepted by your lender.

What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Castle Vale? Is this really necessary?

Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering regulations require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to check the identity of the potential client they are dealing with prior to agreeing to accepting their conveyancing business. The Terms of Engagement that you are required to sign will no doubt confirm this. Your lender will also require certain documents to be checked. If you are unwilling to provide ID verification documents, your conveyancer can not take you on as a client.

Is this applicable for conveyancing in Castle Vale?

Unless a prior purchase of the premises took place after 12 October 2013 you could expect solicitors handling conveyancing in Castle Vale to continue to propose a a chancel search and or insurance against a claim.
