I am approaching an exchange on a flat in Edith Weston and my mum and dad have transferred the exchange deposit to my conveyancer. I am now informed that as the deposit has not arrived from me my conveyancing practitioner needs to disclose this to my lender. Apparently, in also acting for the mortgage company he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I advised the mortgage company concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for him to raise this?
Your solicitor is obliged to clarify with lender to ensure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only report this to your mortgage company if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
When will exchange of contracts occur in sale conveyancing in Edith Weston and am I required to be at the lawyers branch?

That being said, the lender approved solicitors we recommend supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email. The signing of the contract is not the important part.

The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Edith Weston)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

- A significant proportion of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Edith Weston can be avoided where you appoint lawyers as soon as your agents start marketing the property and ask them to collate the leasehold documentation which will be required by the purchasers’ representatives. If you hold a share in a the freehold, you should make sure that you hold the original share certificate. Obtaining a re-issued share certificate is often a lengthy process and delays many a Edith Weston home move. Where a new share is necessary, you should approach the company director and secretary or managing agents (if applicable) for this sooner rather than later. If there is a history of any disputes with your landlord or managing agents it is very important that these are resolved prior to the flat being marketed. The buyers and their solicitors will be concerned about purchasing a property where a dispute is unresolved. You will have to accept that you will have to discharge any arrears of service charge or settle the dispute prior to the buyers completing the purchase. It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled prior to the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors. You are still duty bound to disclose details of the dispute to the purchasers, but it is better to reveal the dispute as historic rather than unsettled.
