In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Llanberis? Why is this being asked of me?
To satisfy the Money Laundering Regulations any Llanberis conveyancing firm will require evidence of your identity in all conveyancing matters. This is normally satisfied by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility account showing your correct address.
Under Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancers are obliged by law to investigate not simply the identity of conveyancing clients but also the origin of fund that they receive in respect of any matter. Refusal to disclose this may lead to your conveyancer cancelling their retainer with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.
Your property lawyers will have an obligation to make a disclosure to the relevant authorities should they believe that any amounts received by them may contravene the Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules.
Just bought a semi-detached house in Llanberis , how long will it take for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing the transfer to my name? My Llanberis conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain the registration is concluded.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Llanberis registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry communicate with any third parties. Currently in the region of 80% of such applications are completed within two weeks but occasionally there can be longer hold-ups. Registration takes place after the purchaser is living at the premises so an expedited registration is not usually primary concern yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

Having checked my lease I have discovered that there are only Sixty One years remaining on my flat in Llanberis. I now want to extend my lease but my landlord is absent. What options are available to me?
On the basis that you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be extended by the magistrate. However, you will be required to demonstrate that you have done all that could be expected to locate the freeholder. In some cases a specialist may be helpful to conduct investigations and prepare an expert document to be used as proof that the freeholder can not be located. It is wise to seek advice from a solicitor in relation to proving the landlord’s absence and the vesting order request to the County Court overseeing Llanberis.

I have read on a number of consumer advice websites that when selecting a conveyancing lawyer they must be approved by your bank. I am novice purchaser but I have an offer in principle via Nat West Bank and I already have a high street conveyancing solicitor in Llanberis lined up. Does Virgin Money insist on an approved lawyer to be instructed? Does a directory of approved solicitors even exist for my conveyancing in Llanberis?
You need to use a solicitor that is on the Virgin Money panel. The first thing to do is ring your preferred Llanberis conveyancing lawyer to check if they are on the Virgin Money panel. If they are not approved you have numerous options available to you here:
- Proceed with your chosen Llanberis lawyer but Virgin Money will no doubt appoint a conveyancing practitioner on their approved panel. This will result in additional cost and probable delay.
- Appoint a new conveyancing practitioner to act in the purchase, making sure they are on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel.
- Appeal to your lawyer to apply to join the lender panel.
