My partner and I are getting closer to an exchange on a property in Kimberley and my parents have sent the ten percent deposit to my conveyancer. I am now advised that as the deposit has been received from someone other than me my conveyancer needs to make a notification to my bank. Apparently, in also acting for the lender he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I informed the bank concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really appropriate for this now to be an issue?

The property lawyer is legally required to clarify with the bank to make sure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only reveal this to your mortgage company if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
