In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Cyncoed? What am I being asked for?
To satisfy the Money Laundering Regulations any Cyncoed 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 your correct address.
Under Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancing solicitors are obliged by law to validate not simply the ID of conveyancing clients but also the source of fund that they receive in respect of any matter. Refusal to disclose this will result in your lawyer cancelling 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 inform the relevant authorities should they believe that any monies received by them may contravene the Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules.

Why do Cyncoed conveyancing fees are more expensive for leasehold and freehold properties?
If acquiring a leasehold property there is more work involved purely due to the fact that usually there are further parties involved in the form of the freeholder and/or Management Agents.
