Should you wish to proceed with an offer on this property, we are obligated by HMRC to conduct mandatory Anti-Money Laundering Checks.

We are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those selling or buying a property as prescribed by the Money Laundering Regulations 2017.

The cost of these checks is £33.00 (incl. VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Coadjute, and is non-refundable.
