Estate Agents are legally required to conduct Anti-Money Laundering (aml) checks on all parties involved in the
sale or purchase of a property. W&W use a specialist service called "Guild 365"• to perform these checks. This is
a service offered to Estate Agents who are members of the Guild of Property Professionals. These checks must be
completed before a property is listed for sale and as soon as an offer is accepted (before we send out the
Memorandum of Sale). There is a non-refundable fee of £25 (plus VAT) per person. Note: W&W receive a portion
of this fee to cover our administration costs in processing these legal checks.
