In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Archway? Is this really warranted?
In order to comply with Money Laundering Regulations any Archway conveyancing firm will require evidence of your identity in all conveyancing transactions. This is usually satisfied by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility bill showing where you live.
In accordance with Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancers are duty bound to ascertain not only the ID of conveyancing clients but also the source of fund that they receive in respect of any matter. Refusal to disclose this will lead to your conveyancer cancelling their relationship with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.
Your property lawyers are duty bound to notify the relevant authorities should they consider that any amounts received by them may contravene the Money Laundering Regulations.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Archway. Before I set the wheels in motion I require certainty as to the number of years remaining on the lease.
Assuming the lease is registered - and 99.9% are in Archway - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
