In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Aldborough Hatch? Is this really warranted?
Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering laws require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to check the ID of the person or body they are dealing with before they can accept their conveyancing retainer. The Client Care letter that you need 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. Where you refuse to supply ID verification documents, your lawyer will not be able to take you on as a client.

It has been 2 months following my purchase conveyancing in Aldborough Hatch completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
I have been recommended by a few selling agents in Aldborough Hatch to find a conveyancer on your site. Is there a financial advantage for Estate Agents to offer your services over and above a competitor’s?
We refuse to offer any referral fee for pointing buyers and sellers to this site. We found it would be just too difficult a fee as members of the public would think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
