My partner and I are approaching an exchange on a property in Beccles and my parents have sent the 10% deposit to my lawyer. I am now informed that as the deposit has not come from me my lawyer needs to disclose this to my bank. Apparently, in also acting for the bank he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I disclosed to the mortgage company concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really appropriate for him to raise this?

The conveyancing practitioner is legally required to clarify with mortgage company to make sure that they know that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. Your solicitor can only disclose this to your bank if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

I am the registered owner of a studio flat in Beccles, conveyancing having been completed 9 years ago. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Comparable flats in Beccles with a long lease are worth £195,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 per annum. The lease ceases on 21st October 2088

With 63 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to span between £16,200 and £18,600 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more comprehensive due diligence. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer.
