In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Bradley Stoke? Why is this being asked of me?

It is indeed that case that these requests have nothing to do with conveyancing in Bradley Stoke. However these days you can not complete any conveyancing deal in the absence providing evidence of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence and a council tax bill. Remember if you are providing your driving licence as evidence of identification it must be both the paper part and photo card part, one is not satisfactory without the other.

Evidence of the source of monies is required under Money Laundering Regulations. Don’t be offended when when this is requested of you as your lawyer must retain this information on record.

Should my conveyancer be raising enquiries about flooding as part of the conveyancing in Bradley Stoke.

Flooding is a growing risk for lawyers carrying out conveyancing in Bradley Stoke. There are those who purchase a property in Bradley Stoke, fully expectant that at some time, it may be flooded. However, aside from the physical destruction, where a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, adequate insurance cover, or dispose of the premises. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.

Lawyers are not best placed to offer advice on flood risk, however there are a number of checks that can be carried out by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which will give them a better understanding of the risks in Bradley Stoke. The standard information sent to a buyer’s lawyer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) includes a standard question of the vendor to discover if the premises has historically flooded. In the event that flooding has previously occurred and is not revealed by the vendor, then a purchaser may issue a legal claim for losses as a result of such an incorrect reply. A buyer’s solicitors will also conduct an enviro search. This will indicate if there is any known flood risk. If so, further inquiries will need to be carried out.

I decided to have a survey done on a property in Bradley Stoke ahead of appointing lawyers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. My surveyor has said that some lenders tend refuse to issue a loan on a flying freehold property.

It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different requirements for example to Birmingham Midshires. If you e-mail us we can look into this further via the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Bradley Stoke.

My father-in-law has encouraged me to appoint his lawyers for conveyancing in Bradley Stoke. Should I use them?
