What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Sandringham? Why is this being asked of me?
In order to comply with Money Laundering Regulations any Sandringham conveyancing firm will require evidence of your identity in all conveyancing transactions. This is normally dealt with by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility account showing where you live.
Under Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancers are required to validate not just the ID of conveyancing clients but also the source of monies that they receive in respect of any matter. Refusal to disclose this will lead to your conveyancer ending their retainer 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 inform the relevant authorities should they consider that any amounts received by them may contravene the Money Laundering Regulations.

Various online forums that I have come across warn that are a common cause of hinderance in Sandringham conveyancing transactions. Is that correct?

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Sandringham I like with open areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Sandringham in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
