In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Queen's Park? What am I being asked for?
Queen's Park conveyancing solicitors and indeed property practitioners accross the UK have an obligation under Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules to verify the identity of any client with a view to ensure that clients are who they say they are.
Conveyancing clients will need to produce two forms of certified identification; proof of ID (typically a Passport or Driving Licence) and proof of address (typically a Bank Statement no older than three months).
Confirmation of the origin of monies is also necessary in compliance with the money laundering laws as lawyers are obliged to ensure that the money you are utilising to buy a property (be it the exchange deposit or the total purchase price where you are buying without a mortgage) has originated from a reputable source (such as employment savings) rather than the fruits of illegitimate activity.
I am looking for a flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in Queen's Park I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 52 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Queen's Park suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
If you require a mortgage that many years may be an issue. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
