What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Hollywood? Why is this being asked of me?
In order to comply with Money Laundering Regulations any Hollywood conveyancing firm will require proof of identity in all conveyancing transactions. This is usually satisfied by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility account showing where you live.
In accordance with Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancers are duty bound to validate not just the identity of conveyancing clients but also the source of fund that they receive in respect of any matter. Refusal to disclose this will lead to your solicitor terminating their retainer with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.
Your conveyancers will have an obligation to notify the relevant authorities should they believe that any monies received by them may contravene the Money Laundering Regulations.
I am helping my aunt sell her house in Hollywood. Does the conveyancing solicitor arrange the energy performance certificate or it is for me to see to?
Following the demise of HIPs, energy performance certificates was left as a compulsory element of selling a property. An EPC must be commissioned before the property is marketed. It is not a task that conveyancers ordinarily arrange. If you are using a Hollywood conveyancing practitioner they may help arrange EPC’s due to their contacts with reputable Hollywood assessors
This question may be naive but I am new to the home buying as a 1st time buyer of a two bedroom flat in Hollywood. Do I pick up the keys to the property on completion from my solicitor? If so, I will instruct a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Hollywood?
On the day of completion you do not need to go to the conveyancers office in Hollywood. Your solicitors will transfer the completion advance to the vendor’s conveyancers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you should be invited to pick up the keys from the property Agents and move into your new home. Usually this occurs between 1 and 3pm.
I am due to exchange contracts on my house. I had a double glazing fitted in January 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, TSB are being difficult. The Hollywood solicitor who is on the TSB conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but TSB are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do TSB have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that TSB have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why TSB may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my home can not be found. The lawyers who dealt with the conveyancing in Hollywood 4 years ago are no longer around. What do I do?
In today’s world there are copies made of almost everything, and your solicitor should be aware precisely where to find all the suitable paperwork so you can purchase or dispose of your property without any difficulty. If duplicates can’t be found, your conveyancer may be able to arrange cover in the form of insurance or indemnities protecting you against possible claims on the premises.
I am buying a new build apartment in Hollywood. Conveyancing is necessary evil 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 conveyancing.
Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build questions that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Hollywood
-
The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. 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.
