In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Park Royal? Is this really warranted?
To satisfy the Money Laundering Regulations any Park Royal conveyancing firm will require evidence of your identity in all conveyancing matters. This is normally satisfied by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility account showing where you reside.
Under Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancers are obliged by law to ascertain not just the identity of conveyancing clients but also the source of the money that they receive in respect of any matter. An unwillingness to disclose this may lead to your lawyer cancelling their relationship 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 consider that any amounts received by them may contravene the Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules.

My wife and I have had DIP from Accord Mortgages Ltd who have advised we could borrow up to £117k. At what point do I need to instruct a solicitor for conveyancing? Park Royal is where we are .
You can instruct a solicitor now so that the lawyer can open the file so they can conduct the AML checks etc. Once you wish them to start work they will seek a deposit normally approximately £225. That should generally be after you have the loan offer from the bank and survey report, nevertheless if you want to speed the process you can start the ball rolling sooner even though you may be risking some money.
