What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Eaton Bray? What am I being asked for?
It is indeed that case that the requirement set out by your solicitor has nothing to do with conveyancing in Eaton Bray. However these days you will not be able to complete any conveyancing transaction if you have not providing evidence of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence and a utility bill. Please note that if you are supplying your driving licence as evidence of ID it must be both the paper element and photo card part, one is not sufficient in the absence of the other.
Verification of the origin of funds is required under Money Laundering Regulations. Please do not be offended when when this is requested of you as your conveyancer will need to have this information on file. Your Eaton Bray conveyancing solicitor will require evidence of proof of funds before they are able to accept any funds from you into their client account and they will also ask additional queries concerning the source of monies.

It is not as aspect of the sale process that solicitors normally organise. If you are instructing a Eaton Bray conveyancing solicitor they might be able to arrange EPC’s due to their relationships with long established local energy assessors
I am purchasing a property in Eaton Bray. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Nottingham have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
As your lender is Nottingham your lawyer must follow the formal requirements contained in Part two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Nottingham. The CML Handbook includes minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to Nottingham where a lease fails to meet these specifications. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not isolated to Eaton Bray.
TSB have agreed my home loan in principle, my offer on a flat in Eaton Bray has been accepted, what are the next steps?
Your estate agent will wish to know who your solicitors are (make sure the property lawyers are on the lender’s approved list). Contact TSB or your broker and finalise any appropriate paperwork.

Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average ten days for the mortgage offer to be issued. TSB will send the offer to you and your conveyancers. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Eaton Bray.
My husband and I are FTB’s - had an offer accepted, yet the estate agent has warned us that the seller will only go ahead if we instruct the agent's recommended lawyers as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Eaton Bray
We suspect that the seller is not behind this request. Should the seller want ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and make the point that (a)you are genuine buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to use your own,trusted Eaton Bray conveyancing lawyers - rather thanthe ones that will provide their estate agent a referral fee or meet his conveyancing thresholds demanded by corporate headquarters.
