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

Boscombe conveyancing solicitors and indeed property practitioners throughout the UK have an obligation under Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules to verify the identity of any client in order to ensure that clients are who they say they are.

Conveyancing clients are required to provide two forms of certified identification; proof of ID (usually a Passport or Driving Licence) and proof of address (typically a Utility Bill no more than three months).

Proof of source of monies is also required in compliance with the money laundering laws as lawyers are duty bound to investigate that the funds you are using to purchase a property (be it the exchange deposit or the full purchase price where you are a cash purchaser) has originated from a reputable source (such as an inheritance) rather than the product of criminal behaviour.

My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, but the estate agent told us that the owners will only go ahead if we instruct the agent's recommended conveyancers as they need a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family solicitor used to conveyancing in Boscombe

We suspect that the seller is not behind this ultimatum. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine buyer is counter productive. Bypass the agents and go straight to the owners and explain that (a)you are motivated buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to appoint your preferred Boscombe conveyancing lawyers - as opposed tothose that will give the estate agent a commission or hit his conveyancing figures pre-set by HQ.
