I am approaching an exchange on a house in Barrow In Furness and my mum and dad have transferred the ten percent deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now told that as the deposit has been sent from someone other than me my conveyancer needs to make a notification to my lender. Apparently, in also acting for the lender he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I disclosed to the bank concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for this now to delay the deal?
Your lawyer is obliged to clarify with mortgage company to make sure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. Your solicitor can only reveal this to your lender if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
