I am approaching an exchange on a property in Dawley and Lawley and my parents have sent the 10% deposit to my conveyancer. I am now told that as the deposit has been received from someone other than me my lawyer needs to make a notification to my lender. Apparently, in also acting for the lender he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I disclosed to the mortgage company about my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really necessary for this now to delay the deal?
The property lawyer is obliged to check with mortgage company to ensure that they know that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. Your solicitor can only disclose this to your mortgage company if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

I acquired my flat on 3 July and the transaction details are still not on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Dawley and Lawley said it would be recorded in less than a month. Are transfers in Dawley and Lawley particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Dawley and Lawley is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry communicate with any interested persons or bodies. At present approximately three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within 12 days but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Registration occurs after the new owner is living at the premises therefore post completion formalities is not always top priority but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer should speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
