Offer Procedure

Before contacting a Building Society, Bank or Solicitor you should make your offer to the office dealing with the sale, as any delay may result in the sale being agreed to another purchaser, thus incurring unnecessary costs. Under the Estate Agency Act 1991, you will be required to provide us with financial information in order to verify your position, before we can recommend your offer to the vendor. We will also require proof of identification in order to adhere to Money Laundering Regulations.

Anti Money Laundering Compliance

We are legally required to conduct Anti-Money Laundering (aml) checks on all purchasers and sellers. These checks become mandatory once a seller accepts an offer on a property (subject to contract).

Aml checks are valid for six months from the date of completion. If your transaction does not proceed and you submit an offer on another property more than six months later, or if your existing aml check is more than six months old at the time of a new offer, you will be required to complete and pay for a new check.

We appoint hipla as our compliance partner to carry out these checks on our behalf. Once your offer has been accepted (subject to contract), hipla will contact you directly to complete a secure electronic verification process.

A non-refundable fee of £30 + VAT per purchaser is payable for the aml check. This fee must be paid before we can issue the Memorandum of Sale to the solicitors. The fee is non-refundable in all circumstances.

Hudson Moody receives service credits from hipla which may be used against other services, in recognition of facilitating the checks and undertaking associated administrative compliance duties.
