What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Finchampstead? Is this really necessary?
It is indeed that case that the requirement set out by your solicitor has nothing to do with conveyancing in Finchampstead. Nowadays you can not complete any conveyancing transaction without first supplying evidence of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence and a bank statement. Please note that if you are providing your driving licence as proof of identification it needs to be both the paper part and photo card part, one is not sufficient without the other.
Evidence of your origin of monies is necessary under Money Laundering Regulations. Please do not be offended when you are asked to produce this as your conveyancer will need to retain this information on record. Your Finchampstead conveyancing solicitor will need to see evidence of proof of funds prior to accepting any monies from you into their client account and they should also ask additional queries concerning the origin of funds.
Can you clarify what the consequences are if my solicitor is removed from the Leeds Building Society Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Finchampstead?
The first thing to point out is that, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.
