In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Mynydd Isa? What am I being asked for?
In order to comply with Money Laundering Regulations any Mynydd Isa conveyancing firm will require evidence of your identity in all conveyancing matters. This is usually satisfied by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility bill showing your correct address.
In accordance with Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancing solicitors are obliged by law to check not only the ID of conveyancing clients but also the origin of fund that they receive in respect of any matter. An unwillingness to disclose this may result in 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 are duty bound to make a disclosure to the relevant authorities should they believe that any amounts received by them may contravene the Money Laundering Regulations.

I'm the only recipient of my late grandmother’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Mynydd Isa. The Mynydd Isa property was put into my name in November. I now wish to sell up. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership could be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in November. Do I have to wait half a year to sell?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook requires solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you might be caught by that. Some lenders would take a sensible view as this clause principally exists to capture the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of property.

If you meet the appropriate requirements, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be granted an extra 90 years by the magistrate. However, you will be required to prove that you have used your best endeavours to track down the landlord. In some cases an enquiry agent may be helpful to conduct investigations and to produce an expert document to be accepted by the court as evidence that the freeholder can not be located.
