My partner and I are only a couple days away from an exchange on a house in Mayfield and my parents have transferred the exchange deposit to my lawyer. I am now advised that as the deposit has not come from me my property lawyer needs to disclose this to my bank. I am advised that, 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 lender concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?
Your conveyancing practitioner is legally required to clarify with lender to ensure that they are aware 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.

Your property lawyer should check the deeds as conveyancing in Mayfield will sometimes reveal restrictions in the title documents which restrict certain changes or need the consent of another owner.

Certain areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or impact extensions. You should check these issues with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.
I am the only beneficiary of my late grandmother’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Mayfield. The Mayfield property was put into my name in August. I want to move. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership could be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the house in August. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you might be impacted by that. many banks would take a pragmatic view as this clause is principally there to identify subsales or the quick reselling of property.
