We opted for a local firm for our conveyancing in Frinton On Sea last week. After carefully reading the Terms and Conditions I noteI am on the hook for fees even if the sale doesn't happen. Should I go with them or use an on-line conveyancing company advertising no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Frinton On Sea?
It is usually a trade off in that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the fee levels will tend to be be higher to offset those transactions that fail to complete. Dont forget that such arrangements rarely cover disbursements by way of example Frinton On Sea conveyancing search costs.
What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Frinton On Sea? Why is this being asked of me?
You are right in the requirement set out by your lawyer has nothing to do with conveyancing in Frinton On Sea. Nowadays you will not be able to complete any conveyancing deal without first submitting evidence of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence and a council tax bill. Please note that if you are providing your driving licence as evidence of ID it needs to be both the paper element as well as the photo card part, one is not satisfactory in the absence of the other.
Proof of your source of funds is necessary under Money Laundering Regulations. Please do not be offended when when this is requested of you as your conveyancer must retain this information on file. Your Frinton On Sea conveyancing practitioner will need to see evidence of proof of funds before they are able to accept any money from you into their client account and they may also ask additional questions concerning the source of funds.

Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Frinton On Sea. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.
Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Frinton On Sea
-
Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Please supply a car parking plan. The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier?
Is it best to use a Frinton On Sea conveyancing lawyer who is local to the property I am hoping to buy? I have an old university friend who can deal with the conveyancing but her office is 400miles drive away.
The primary upside of using a high street Frinton On Sea conveyancing firm is that you can visit the firm to execute paperwork, present your ID and apply pressure on them where appropriate. Having local Frinton On Sea know how is a plus. That being said it's more important to get someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who instructed your friend and the majority were happy that should surpass using an unfamiliar Frinton On Sea conveyancing lawyer solely due to them being Frinton On Sea based.
We have selected a Frinton On Sea conveyancing solicitor for our house purchase (novice purchasers) and have noticed in the Ts and Cs that they are not governed by the FCA. Am I right to be worried or is that usually the case with property lawyer?
We can't see why they should be. Most conveyancing practitioner don't lend money. You should check that they are regulated by the SRA, who have specific stipulations in place on amounts held on client account.
