What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Croesyceiliog? Is this really necessary?

Croesyceiliog conveyancing solicitors as well as nationwide property lawyers throughout the UK have an obligation under Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules to verify the identity of any client in order to ensure that clients are who they say they are.

Conveyancing clients are required to produce two forms of certified ID; proof of identity (typically a Passport or Driving Licence) and proof of address (typically a Utility Bill no older than three months).

Proof of source of funds is also necessary under the money laundering laws as lawyers are duty bound to check that the money you are utilising to acquire a property (whether it be the deposit for exchange or the total purchase monies if you are buying without a mortgage) has originated from legitimate source (such as employment savings) rather than the proceeds of illegitimate behaviour.

We are getting the release of further funds on our home loan from Bank of Ireland as we wish to carry out improvements to our house in Croesyceiliog. Do we need to appoint a bricks and mortar Croesyceiliog solicitor on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?

Bank of Ireland do not ordinarily require firms on their approved list of lawyers to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Bank of Ireland panel.

I am expecting a DIP from Barclays this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Barclays recommend any Croesyceiliog solicitors on the Barclays conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?

You will need to appoint Croesyceiliog solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Barclays conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Barclays through the process.

After weeks of negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Croesyceiliog. My financial adviser suggested a lawyer. I paid an advanced payment of £225. Shortly after, the conveyancer contacted me to say that they were not on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Clydesdale panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
