If your purchase is dependent on the sale of\nan existing property you will also need to provide a status report from the\nestate agent handling the sale of this property, which gives an update on how\nthe sale is progressing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whilst it is your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yopa.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/conveyancing-everything-need-know-afraid-ask\/\">solicitor or\nconveyancer<\/a> who is responsible for undertaking legal work on your behalf\nand will need the proof of funds to ensure the sale of the property is\ncompleted successfully and lawfully, you will also need to provide this\nevidence to other interested parties who are required by law to request the\ninformation to ensure that you are who you say you are, you can afford to buy\nthe property and are not doing so fraudulently. This includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The estate agent marketing the property, who must adhere to both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/registration-guide-for-estate-agency-businesses\">HMRC<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tpos.co.uk\/codes-of-practice\">Property Ombudsman Code of Practice<\/a> to ascertain both the source and availability of funds. However, it is important to note that you do not need to work with an in-house or agent-recommended mortgage broker to provide proof of funds to an estate agent, which can be a common myth populated by agents seeking additional commission. <\/li><li>The seller\u2019s solicitor \u2013 although your own solicitor will usually provide this information on your behalf once you have submitted it to them.<\/li><li>Your mortgage lender if you need a mortgage to purchase the property.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some estate agents may request proof of funds at an early\nstage to ensure you are a serious buyer. However, there is no obligation to\nprovide this proof until you have made an offer on a property. Whilst it may be\nbeneficial for a cash buyer to provide this information at an early stage to\nsecure a good deal on a property and show that they are in a position to\ncomplete quickly on a sale, for those seeking a mortgage it is best not to request\na mortgage in principle unless you are seriously considering making an offer on\na property. This is because the mortgage in principle is only valid for 2-3\nmonths and every time your lender provides a mortgage in principle decision\nthis is likely to involve a hard credit check, which can affect your overall\ncredit rating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you have had an offer accepted on a property, you will\nbe required to provide evidence of both the proof and <em>source<\/em> of funds to\ncomply with UK <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fca.org.uk\/firms\/financial-crime\/money-laundering-regulations\">money laundering\nregulations<\/a>, which are there to ensure that a buyer is not purchasing a\nproperty with the proceeds of criminal activity. This is the case even if you are\na cash buyer with the money sitting in the bank, ready to go. A solicitor\ncannot legally proceed with the sale of a property without sufficient proof of\nwhere the money has come from so you need to ensure you are in a position to\nprovide this proof as soon as your offer has been accepted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The source of funds is essentially the evidence to show how\nthe money came into your possession. Depending on your individual circumstances\nyou may need to supply some or all of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Bank statements covering an extended period of\ntime to show how savings were accumulated. <\/li><li>A letter from a relative or friend to confirm\nthat they have gifted you the money and evidence of how they themselves acquired\nit (such as a bank statement).<\/li><li>Evidence of an inheritance from the executors of\na will.<\/li><li>Evidence of a property sale, specifically the\nstatement of completion from a solicitor.<\/li><li>Pension records including your bank statement\nshowing the deposit from the pension company.<\/li><li>Sale of shares, including the shares release\nschedule and a statement showing the money being received.<\/li><li>Release of dividends from a UK company, including\na copy of the dividend certificate, the company&#8217;s accounts and a statement\nshowing the money being received.<\/li><li>Confirmation from a solicitor or court for a\ncompensation payment or divorce settlement.<\/li><li>In the unusual event of a lottery win or a\nsignificant gambling success you would also need to provide a receipt proving\nyour win. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is important to note that if you are receiving money from\nabroad (whether that be from your own overseas bank account or a gift from a\nfriend or relative living in a different country), your solicitor may decline\nthe sale if the country where the money originates is considered high risk*. If\nyou will be moving money from abroad to purchase a property, seek legal advice\nfrom a solicitor or conveyancer experienced in international transactions before\nyou start the ball rolling on your house search. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"valuation-widgets\">\n    <div class=\"valuation-widgets__col\">\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yopa.co.uk\/online-valuation\" class=\"valuation-widget\">\n            <div class=\"media\">\n    <div class=\"media__media\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dy36-2.stage.yopa-dev.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/wp-content\/themes\/yopa\/assets\/images\/icon-house.svg\" alt=\"\" role=\"presentation\">    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"media__inner\">\n        <div class=\"media__heading\">\n            Instant online <span class=\"chevron\">valuation<\/span>        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"media__content\">\n            <p>Get a rough estimate of your home's value now.<\/p>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n        <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"valuation-widgets__col\">\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yopa.co.uk\/property-valuation\" class=\"valuation-widget\">\n            <div class=\"media\">\n    <div class=\"media__media\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dy36-2.stage.yopa-dev.co.uk\/homeowners-hub\/wp-content\/themes\/yopa\/assets\/images\/icon-currency.svg\" alt=\"\" role=\"presentation\">    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"media__inner\">\n        <div class=\"media__heading\">\n            Face-to-face <span class=\"chevron\">valuation<\/span>        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"media__content\">\n            <p>Book an appointment with your local Yopa agent.<\/p>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n        <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>*This currently applies to all countries apart from: Australia; Austria; Belgium; Canada; Cyprus; Denmark; Finland; France; Germany; Greece; Hong Kong; Iceland; Japan; Ireland; Italy; Luxembourg; Malta; The Netherlands; New Zealand; Norway; Portugal; Singapore; Spain; Sweden; Switzerland and the USA.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the name suggests, providing \u201cproof of funds\u201d shows that you have sufficient money to purchase a property and applies to both cash buyers and those who are buying a property with the help of a mortgage.
