What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Pulborough? What am I being asked for?
To satisfy the Money Laundering Regulations any Pulborough 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 evidencing where you live.
Under Money Laundering Regulations, property lawyers are duty bound to ascertain not simply the ID of conveyancing clients but also the origin of the money that they receive in respect of any matter. Refusal to disclose this will result in your solicitor ending their relationship with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.
Your property lawyers are duty bound to make a disclosure to the appropriate authorities should they consider that any amounts received by them may contravene the Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules.
I am assisting my aunt sell her flat in Pulborough. Does the conveyancing solicitor commission an energy performance certificate or it is for me to coordinate?
After the abolition of Home Packs, energy assessments became a mandatory part of selling a house. An energy performance certificate must be to hand in advance of the property being marketed. It is not as aspect of the sale process that conveyancers normally organise. If you are instructing a Pulborough conveyancing practitioner they may be able to arrange energy assessments due to their contacts with long established Pulborough providers
The mortgage over my property is with Lloyds for my property in Pulborough. Conveyancing was finalised months ago. Should I wish to rent out the flat and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform Lloyds?
Your original mortgage agreement with Lloyds will provide that you need their approval prior to letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Lloyds’s mortgage conditions. It may be that Lloyds will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Lloyds directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Lloyds conveyancing panel lawyer.
Completion of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Pulborough. Conveyancing was a necessary evil but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. How does one go about formally complaining?
Almost all banks and building societies have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Team at head office. We understand that complaints to a lender are sorted out very quickly. However if you are not satisfied that the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service, South Quay Plaza, 183 Marsh Wall, London E14 9SR with full details of your complaint.
My partner and I are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our property in Pulborough and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built on contaminated land. Any local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers instructed a web based conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Pulborough. We have lived in Pulborough for three years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to get clarification need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm 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 health insurance to cover that same ailment)

The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.

The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared.
