In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Beddington South? What am I being asked for?
Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to verify the identification documents of the person or body they are dealing with before they can accept their conveyancing retainer. The Terms and Conditions that you need to sign should reaffirm this. Your lender will also require certain documents to be viewed. Should you refuse to supply ID verification documents, your lawyer can not take you on as a client.

If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and almost all are in Beddington South - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties.
