In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Mevagissey? What am I being asked for?
To satisfy the Money Laundering Regulations any Mevagissey conveyancing firm will require evidence of your identity in all conveyancing transactions. This is usually dealt with by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility bill showing where you reside.
In accordance with Money Laundering Regulations, property lawyers are required to investigate not only the ID of conveyancing clients but also the source of the money that they receive in respect of any matter. An unwillingness to disclose this will lead to your conveyancer ending their relationship with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.
Your conveyancers are duty bound to inform the appropriate authorities should they believe that any amounts received by them may contravene the Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules.
I am downsizing from our house in Mevagissey and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Mevagissey conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers are using a national conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Mevagissey. Having lived in Mevagissey for 4 years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to get confirmation that there is no issue.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should enquire of 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 life insurance to cover that same ailment)
