What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Trefriw? Is this really necessary?
In order to comply with Money Laundering Regulations any Trefriw conveyancing firm will require evidence of your identity in all conveyancing transactions. This is usually satisfied by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility bill showing where you reside.
In accordance with Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancing solicitors are obliged by law to validate not just the ID of conveyancing clients but also the origin of the money that they receive in respect of any matter. An unwillingness to disclose this will result in your conveyancer cancelling their retainer with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.
Your conveyancers will have an obligation to make a disclosure to the relevant authorities should they believe that any monies received by them may contravene the Money Laundering Regulations.

I am employed by a busy estate agency in Trefriw where we have witnessed a number of flat sales jeopardised due to short leases. I have received contradictory information from local Trefriw conveyancing solicitors. Can you confirm whether the vendor of a flat can instigate the lease extension formalities for the buyer?
Provided that the seller has owned the lease for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the buyer can avoid having to wait 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed prior to, or at the same time as completion of the sale.
Alternatively, it may be possible to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.
I inherited a basement flat in Trefriw, conveyancing was carried out May 1999. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Corresponding properties in Trefriw with over 90 years remaining are worth £185,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £65 invoiced annually. The lease expires on 21st October 2086
With 60 years remaining on your lease we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £20,000 and £23,000 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more comprehensive due diligence.

There may be additional issues that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations.
