In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Moston? Is this really necessary?
Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering regulations require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to verify the identification documents of the person or body they are dealing with before they can accept their conveyancing retainer. The Client Care letter that you are required to sign will no doubt stipulate this. Your lawyer also has obligations to obtain certain documents in accordance with the CML Lenders Handbook requirements last updated on 1st December 2014. Should you are unwilling to provide identification documents, your conveyancer will not be able to take you on as a client.

I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Moston. I have a mortgage offer with Kent Reliance. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?

One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds.

My husband and I are novice buyers - agreed a price, yet the property agent has warned us that the seller will only proceed if we appoint the agent's recommended lawyers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local solicitor used to conveyancing in Moston
We suspect that the seller is unaware of this requirement. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Contact the vendors directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you will continue to instruct your preferred Moston conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will give the negotiator at the agency a referral fee or achieve conveyancing targets set by head office.
