I am in a contract race with another buyer for a property in Edith Weston. What can I do to accelerate the legal process?

In the event that the seller is applying pressure to sign contracts we would recommend that your conveyancer is familiar with the location as they will make use of local contacts and insight. It is even conceivable that they could have transacted otherhouses in the same road. You would be best advised to use a Edith Weston conveyancing firm. Second, check that the lawyer is on the member panel. It is believed that just under twenty per cent of Edith Weston conveyancing deals are held up or jeopardised after discovering a buyer’s solicitor was not on their banks panel. In many cases this discovery resulted in the transaction being delayed by as much as three weeks. It is said that this issue affects in the region of 100,000 home sales every year. Almost all Edith Weston conveyancing firms can not act for certain banks so do check at the outset.

What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Edith Weston? What am I being asked for?

You are right in these requests have nothing to do with conveyancing in Edith Weston. Nowadays you can not proceed with any conveyancing process without first submitting evidence of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence plus a utility bill. Please note that if you are providing your driving licence as evidence of identification it needs to be both the paper section and photo card part, one is not satisfactory without the other.

Evidence of your source of money is required in accordance with the Money Laundering Regulations. Please do not be offended when when this is requested of you as your conveyancer must retain this information on record. Your Edith Weston conveyancing solicitor will require evidence of proof of funds prior to accepting any funds from you into their client account and they may also ask further queries concerning the origin of funds.

Do I have to pop into the offices of the solicitor to sign the mortgage deed? If so, I will appoint a lawyer who conducts conveyancing in Edith Weston so that I can attend their offices if necessary.
