What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Prestatyn? Is this really necessary?
Prestatyn conveyancing solicitors as well as nationwide property practitioners throughout the UK have an obligation under money laundering regulations to verify the identity of any client in order to ensure that clients are who they say they are.
Conveyancing clients are required to provide two forms of certified identification; proof of ID (typically a Passport or Driving Licence) and evidence of address (usually a Bank Statement less than 3 months old).
Proof of source of monies is also required under the money laundering statutes as solicitors are required to ensure that the funds you are utilising to purchase a property (whether it be the deposit for exchange or the total purchase amount if you are a cash purchaser) has come from an acceptable source (such as an inheritance) and is not the product of criminal behaviour.
Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my home are lost. The lawyers who did the conveyancing in Prestatyn 4 years ago no longer exist. What do I do?
Assuming you have a registered title the details of your ownership will be documented by HMLR with a Title Number. It is easy to perform a search at the Land Registry, identify your property and obtain current copies of the Registered Entries for a small fee. Where the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will usually hold a file copy of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be retrieved for £20 inclusive of VAT.
How can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my commercial premises in Prestatyn and how can your lawyers assist?
The particular law that you refer to affords a safeguard to business tenants, granting the dueness to apply to court for a continuation of occupancy at the end of an expired lease. There are certain specified grounds that a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complicated. Fees are different for commercial conveyancing.

I am an executor of my recently deceased mum’s Will, with a house in Prestatyn which is to be marketed. The property is unregistered at HMLR and I'm advised that some EAs will insist that it is completed before they'll move forward. What's the mechanism for this?
In the situation that you have set out it seems sensible to apply to register in the names of the personal representative(s) as named in the probate and in their capacity as PRs. HMLR’s online guidance explains how to register for the first time and what is required re the deeds and forms. You would need to include and certified copy of the probate as well and complete the form FR1 to refer to the PRs as the applicant.
