What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Rusholm? What am I being asked for?
It is indeed that case that these requests have nothing to do with conveyancing in Rusholm. However these days you can not proceed with any conveyancing process without first supplying evidence of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence as well as a bank statement. Please note that if you are supplying your driving licence as proof of identification it needs to be both the paper section as well as the photo card part, one is not satisfactory without the other.
Evidence of your source of monies is mandated in accordance with the Money Laundering Regulations. You should not be offended when you are asked to produce this as your conveyancing solicitor must have this information on record. Your Rusholm conveyancing practitioner will need to see evidence of proof of funds before they are able to accept any monies from you into their client account and they may also ask additional queries concerning the source of funds.
My fiance and I are purchasing a newbuild apartment in Rusholm with a mortgage from Nationwide Building Society.We use our Rusholm conveyancing lawyer but Nationwide Building Society informed us her practice is not on their approved list of member firms. It seems we have no choice but to instruct a Nationwide Building Society panel solicitor or keep our high street solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to act for them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. The mortgage offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that conveyancers will be on the Nationwide Building Society approved list. Until recently, most mortgage companies had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Nationwide Building Society
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Rusholm I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Rusholm in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan that many years may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
