I am not in a position to travel far from Frinton On Sea. I would like to know the understand why all Frinton On Sea property lawyers aren't automatically on all bank panels?

Lenders normally impose restrictions on either the type or the number of conveyancing firms on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such criteria being that the organisation is required to have at least two partners. As well as restricting the structure of firm, some banks decided to reduce the size of their panel they use to represent them. It is worth noting that mortgage companies have no responsibility for the accuracy of service given by any Frinton On Sea conveyancer on their panel. Increases in mortgage fraud was a key driver in the rationalisation of solicitor panels a few years ago notwithstanding that there are differing opinions about the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Data from the Land Registry exposes that thousands of law firms only transact one or two conveyances annually. Those vindicating conveyancing panel consolidation ask why law firms deserve any entitlement to remain on a conveyancing panel when it is evident that conveyancing is not their speciality?

In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Frinton On Sea? Is this really necessary?

Frinton On Sea conveyancing solicitors and indeed property practitioners throughout the UK have a duty under money laundering regulations to verify the identity of any client in order to satisfy themselves that clients are who they say they are.

Conveyancing clients will need to disclose two forms of certified identification; proof of identity (usually a Passport or Driving Licence) and proof of address (typically a Utility Bill no older than three months).

Confirmation of the origin of funds is also necessary in accordance with the money laundering statutes as conveyancers have a duty to ensure that the monies you are using to purchase a property (whether it be the deposit for exchange or the full purchase price where you are buying without a mortgage) has come from an acceptable source (such as employment savings) rather than the fruits of criminal activity.

I am in the process of remortgaging my property in Frinton On Sea, does my lawyer have to be on the Kent Reliance Conveyancing panel?

In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel, but Kent Reliance would require one of their panel solicitors to be instructed to act in their interests, and you'd have to pay for this - so most people instruct a panel solicitor. It's also easier, as otherwise you'd have to deal with two solicitors for the same transaction.

Just bought a terraced house in Frinton On Sea , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing the transfer to my name? My Frinton On Sea conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain the land registry aspects are dealt with.

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Frinton On Sea registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry communicate with any 3rd parties. At present approximately 80% of submission are fully dealt with within 12 days but some can be subject to extensive hold-ups.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £245,000 and found one near me in Frinton On Sea I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 52 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Frinton On Sea for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you require a home loan that many years will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.
