We are nearing an exchange on a property in Marston Moretaine and my mum and dad have transferred the ten percent deposit to my lawyer. I am now told that as the deposit has not arrived from me my solicitor needs to disclose this to my mortgage company. Apparently, in also acting for the bank he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I informed the bank regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really appropriate for this now to be an issue?

Your conveyancing practitioner is obliged to check with mortgage company to ensure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only report this to your bank if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

The conveyancing practitioner in Marston Moretaine who previously acted has now retired. What should I do?
