In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Wheathampstead? Is this really necessary?
It is indeed that case that the requirement set out by your lawyer has nothing to do with conveyancing in Wheathampstead. However these days you will not be able to complete any conveyancing deal if you have not submitting evidence of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence as well as a bank statement. Remember if you are providing your driving licence as proof of identification it must be both the paper element as well as the photo card part, one is not sufficient in the absence of the other.
Proof of the source of funds is mandated under Money Laundering Regulations. Don’t be offended when you are asked to produce this as your lawyer will need to retain this information on record. Your Wheathampstead conveyancing solicitor will require evidence of proof of funds before they are able to accept any monies from you into their client account and they will also ask additional queries concerning the origin of funds.

I am the sole beneficiary of my late father’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Wheathampstead. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in November. I plan to dispose of the property. I do know about the CML 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship may be treated the same way as though I had purchased the house in November. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The CML handbook requires solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be caught by that. many mortgage companies would take a sensible view as this clause chiefly exists to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of property.
