What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Pencader? Is this really warranted?
To satisfy the Money Laundering Regulations any Pencader conveyancing firm will require evidence of your identity in all conveyancing matters. This is usually dealt with by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility account showing your correct address.
In accordance with Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancers are required to investigate not simply the ID of conveyancing clients but also the source of monies that they receive in respect of any matter. An unwillingness to disclose this may lead to your solicitor cancelling their relationship with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.
Your conveyancers will have an obligation to inform the relevant authorities should they believe that any monies received by them may contravene the Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules.
I am being told by my conveyancer that breach of easement insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Pencader conveyancing?
The right level of breach of easement indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Accord Mortgages Ltd and Skipton Building Society. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to borrowers take out such insurances.
We previously selected conveyancers located in Pencader on the Lloyds solicitor approved list. They have just billed me a further amount for handling the Lloyds mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by Lloyds?
As unfair as it may appear, as long as it’s in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your conveyancer may levy a fee for this. This charge is not dictated by Lloyds but by your Pencader solicitor. Numerous firms on the Lloyds panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee but plenty of firms incorporate it on their overall fee.
I am selling my house. I had a double glazing fitted in May 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, UBS are being a right pain. The Pencader solicitor who is on the UBS conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but UBS are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do UBS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that UBS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why UBS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
