Note to Buyers

We are aware that a sprayed foam coating has been applied to the underside of the roof covering Government Incentive and Perceived Benefits: The insulation was installed as part of a government initiative to improve energy efficiency. The vendor views it as a benefit, possibly due to improved thermal performance and lower energy bills. Potential Lending Issues: The Vendor has a mortgage with a mainstream Lender, but some mortgage lenders may view sprayed foam insulation unfavorably. It’s important to check with your lender to ensure this won’t affect your ability to secure financing. Next Steps: Lender Discussions: Engage your mortgage provider early to understand their stance on this type of insulation and whether it will affect your borrowing potential.

Agent's Note

HMRC is a supervisory body for money laundering regulations, of which all estate agents need to be registered with. As part of this, there are multiple requirements that agents must rigorously and consistently meet to ensure they stay compliant with the regulations and protect their clients. To do this, we use an identity verification service, approved by the Government as part of the Digital Identity and Attributes Trust Framework (DIATF). This method and the process we follow to ensure compliance for your transaction come with significant time, financial and legal implications hence a portion of this is passed on to our clients. We elected for this verification process due to the speed, certainty, and accuracy it delivers. This helps us to protect all our client's interests by using the most advanced verification process to help prevent the impacts of money laundering alongside our internal manual policies and procedures while staying compliant with HMRC.

.

The administrative charge for this process is £35 plus VAT for a sole purchaser, £60 plus VAT for two purchasers and £70 plus VAT three or more purchasers.
