What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Roath Park? What am I being asked for?
Roath Park conveyancing solicitors and indeed property lawyers accross the UK have a duty under money laundering regulations to check the identity of any client with a view to satisfy themselves that clients are who they say they are.
Conveyancing clients will need to produce two forms of certified ID; proof of identity (typically a Passport or Driving Licence) and evidence of address (typically a Bank Statement no older than three months).
Proof of the origin of monies is also necessary under the money laundering laws as conveyancers are obliged to ensure that the funds you are utilising to purchase a property (be it the exchange deposit or the full purchase monies if you are a cash purchaser) has come from legitimate source (such as an inheritance) as opposed to the product of criminal behaviour.
3 months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Roath Park concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

Although the landlord is under no legal obligation to answer such questions the majority will be content to assist. They are at liberty to invoice a reasonable charge for answering questions or supplying documentation. There is no set fee. The average fee for the paperwork that you are referring to is £350, in some cases it exceeds £800. The management information fee invoiced by the landlord must be sent together with a summary of entitlements and obligations in relation to administration fees, without which the invoice is not strictly payable. In reality you have little choice but to pay whatever is requested of you if you want to exchange contracts with the buyer.

Corresponding properties in Roath Park with an extended lease are worth £216,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 invoiced every year. The lease expires on 21st October 2093
With just 68 years unexpired the likely cost is going to range between £9,500 and £11,000 as well as professional fees.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed due diligence. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information before getting professional advice.
