In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Aldborough Hatch? Why is this being asked of me?
You are right in the requirement set out by your lawyer has nothing to do with conveyancing in Aldborough Hatch. Nowadays you will not be able to proceed with any conveyancing process without first handing over proof of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence as well as a bank statement. Please note that if you are supplying your driving licence as proof of identification it must be both the paper section and photo card part, one is not satisfactory without the other.
Evidence of the origin of funds is required under Money Laundering Regulations. You should not be offended when you are asked to produce this as your conveyancing solicitor will need to retain this information on file. Your Aldborough Hatch conveyancing solicitor will need to see evidence of proof of funds before they are able to accept any funds from you into their client account and they may also ask further queries concerning the source of funds.
This question may be naive but I am new to the home buying as FTB of a two bedroom flat in Aldborough Hatch. Do I receive the keys to the property on the completion date from my solicitor? If this is the case, I will use a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Aldborough Hatch?
On the day of completion you do not need to attend the conveyancers office in Aldborough Hatch. Conveyancing lawyers for you will electronically transfer the completion advance to the vendor’s conveyancers, and once they have received this, you should be able to pick up the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home. This tends to happen early afternoon.
My wife and I purchasing a terrace house in Aldborough Hatch. We would like to carry out an extension to the side at the house.Will the conveyancing process include investigations to determine if these works are prohibited?
Your property lawyer will review the deeds as conveyancing in Aldborough Hatch will occasionally identify restrictions in the title documents which restrict certain works or necessitated the consent of a 3rd party. Certain extensions require local authority planning consent and approval under the building regulations. Certain locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions.

is it true that all Aldborough Hatch solicitor practices on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel are overseen by the SRA?
As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Bank of Ireland approved list of solicitors they would need to be governed by the SRA. The majority of mortgage companies do allow licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such organisation would be governed by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.
We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in Aldborough Hatch and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built on contaminated land. Any high street Aldborough Hatch conveyancer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using a nationwide conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Aldborough Hatch. Having lived in Aldborough Hatch for 5 years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to get clarification that there is no issue.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)
