Recently contacted my conveyancing solicitor in Hirwaun who acted for me 18 months ago asking for a conveyancing quote based on the same type of house move (a leasehold residence and a freehold premises) of similar values with a mortgage from Clydesdale. It looks as though am now being charged double. Should I look for a cheaper online conveyancer?

The estimate fees seem a tad high. If you shop around you may be able to shave off some of the expense by say £100 plus VAT.

In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Hirwaun? What am I being asked for?

To satisfy the Money Laundering Regulations any Hirwaun conveyancing firm will require proof of identity in all conveyancing matters. This is normally dealt with by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility account showing where you reside.

In accordance with Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancers are duty bound to validate not only the identity of conveyancing clients but also the origin of the money that they receive in respect of any matter. An unwillingness to disclose this may lead to your lawyer terminating their retainer with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.

Your property lawyers are duty bound to notify the appropriate authorities should they consider that any monies received by them may contravene the Money Laundering Regulations.

Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Hirwaun. 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.

    Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company?

We have an offer in principle from Clydesdale who have advised we could borrow up to £117k. When do we need to instruct a solicitor for conveyancing? Hirwaun is where we plan to move to.

You can instruct a conveyancer now so that the lawyer can open the file so they can do the ID checks etc. If and when you wish them to commence work they will seek a payment on account normally approximately £200. That would normally be after you have the mortgage offer and valuation back, but should you want to expedite the process you can start quicker albeit risking some expense.
