My friend's dad is a conveyancer. I anticipate that I'll be able to get mate’s pricing for conveyancing, but if not, what level of fees would I typically be looking at for conveyancing in Polegate?
It’s prudent to get two or three conveyancing quotes. Make use of our search tool on this page. The prices may vary but the service one can expect are distinct between property lawyers as is the case with the vast majority of professional services.
Our Polegate conveyancer has spotted a difference when comparing the surveyor’s assumptions in the valuation survey and what is in the conveyancing documents. My solicitor has advised that he is duty bound to check that the bank is happy with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my lawyer’s stance appropriate?
Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for both parties.
In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Polegate? Why is this being asked of me?
In order to comply with Money Laundering Regulations any Polegate conveyancing firm will require evidence of your identity in all conveyancing matters. This is normally dealt with by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility bill showing where you live.
In accordance with Money Laundering Regulations, property lawyers are duty bound to investigate not simply the identity of conveyancing clients but also the origin of monies that they receive in respect of any matter. An unwillingness to disclose this will result in your solicitor terminating their relationship 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 inform the relevant authorities should they consider that any amounts received by them may contravene the Money Laundering Regulations.

We're first time buyers - had an offer accepted, but the property agent advised that the vendor will only move forward if we appoint the agent's recommended conveyancers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local solicitor used to conveyancing in Polegate
We suspect that the seller is not behind this demand. If they desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Try to communicate with the sellers directly and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to instruct your preferred Polegate conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthose that will give the negotiator at the agency a commission or achieve conveyancing targets pre-set by head office.
