How do I verify a potential borrower's identity?

Author : William Stark - 05-11-2014

The TO may use this as an excuse to avoid paying compensation for forged mortgages under the Compensation Scheme.

The author concludes that given that the DVS information is available, and given the emphasis on constructive notice in the cancellation provisions, it is possible that the courts will agree. Accordingly lenders should consider incorporating a DVS check into their identity checking.

I agree with the author's conclusion.
