I am approaching an exchange on a house in Aberporth and my parents have transferred the 10% deposit to my solicitor. I am now informed that as the deposit has been received from someone other than me my conveyancing practitioner needs to disclose this to my bank. Apparently, in also acting for the mortgage company he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I advised the lender about my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really appropriate for this now to hold matters up?

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in Aberporth I like with open areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 61 years on the lease. There is not much else in Aberporth suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
