“We are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those selling or buying a property. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks and any ongoing monitoring are carried out correctly, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or had an offer accepted on a property you wish to buy. The cost of these checks is £48 (incl. VAT), unless purchasers are in receipt of a gifted deposit of £10,000 or more, in which case the cost of the checks, to include checks on the gifting party (ies) is £52 (incl. VAT) which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Lifetime Legal, and is non-refundable.” We do not receive any of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal for its role in the provision of these checks.
