We are legally required to conduct Anti Money Laundering checks on all purchasers, sellers, and giftors. These checks become mandatory when a seller accepts a purchaser's offer on a property. Anti-Money Laundering checks are valid for 6 months from the date they are completed. If your purchase does not proceed and you make an offer on another property more than 6 months later, or if your checks are more than 6 months old when making a new offer, you will need to complete and pay for new checks. We use a partner supplier MoveButler, to carry out these checks on our behalf. They will contact you directly once your offer has been accepted (subject to contract) to complete the electronic verification process securely. There is a non-refundable charge of £30 + VAT per purchaser and per giftor for these checks.. This fee must be paid before we can issue a memorandum of sale to solicitors and is non-refundable under any circumstances. Ashtons receive a portion of this fee from MoveButler as compensation for facilitating these checks and our administrative role in the compliance process.
Although these particulars are thought to be materially correct their accuracy cannot be guaranteed and they do not form part of any contract.
