In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Headley? What am I being asked for?
You are right in the requirement set out by your solicitor has nothing to do with conveyancing in Headley. Nowadays you can not proceed with any conveyancing deal without first handing over proof of your identity. This usually takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence as well as a bank statement. Remember if you are supplying your driving licence as proof of ID it must be both the paper element and photo card part, one is not sufficient without the other.
Evidence of the source of monies is necessary in accordance with the Money Laundering Regulations. You should not be offended when when this is requested of you as your conveyancing solicitor must have this information on file. Your Headley conveyancing practitioner will need to see evidence of proof of funds before they are able to accept any funds from you into their client account and they may also ask further queries concerning the origin of funds.
We are intent on selling our home in Headley and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Headley lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using a factory type conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Headley. We have lived in Headley for six years we know that this is a non issue. Do we contact our local Authority to obtain clarification that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same illness)
The deeds to my property are lost. The lawyers who dealt with the conveyancing in Headley 10 years ago are no longer around. What are my next steps?
Gone are the days when you need to hold title original deeds to evidence that you own the land or premises, as the Land Registry hold details of all registered land or property electronically.
I opted to have a survey carried out on a property in Headley before appointing solicitors. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the property. Our surveyor has said that some lenders tend refuse to grant a mortgage on a flying freehold property.
It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different instructions for example to Nationwide. If you contact us we can investigate further with the appropriate lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Headley. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Headley to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.
I need to retain a conveyancing solicitor for some conveyancing in Headley. I happened to chance upon a web site which seems to have the ideal offering If it is possible to get all this stuff completed via phone that would be preferable. Do I need to be wary? What should out be looking out for?
As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
