Our Ross On Wye conveyancer has discovered a discrepancy between the surveyor’s assumptions in the home valuation report and what is in the title deeds. My solicitor has advised that he needs to ensure that the lender is happy with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my conveyancer’s stance right?
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.
What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Ross On Wye? Is this really necessary?
To satisfy the Money Laundering Regulations any Ross On Wye conveyancing firm will require proof of identity in all conveyancing matters. This is normally satisfied by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility bill evidencing where you live.
Under Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancing solicitors are obliged by law to ascertain not only the ID of conveyancing clients but also the source of fund that they receive in respect of any matter. Refusal to disclose this will result in your lawyer ending their retainer with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.
Your conveyancers are duty bound to inform the relevant authorities should they believe that any amounts received by them may contravene the Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules.

Registration is effected once the buyer is living at the property so an expedited registration is not usually top priority yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
