We are approaching an exchange on a property in Saltash and my parents have sent the 10% deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now advised that as the deposit has been sent from someone other than me my solicitor needs to disclose this to my bank. I am advised that, in also acting for the bank he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I disclosed to the bank about my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for him to raise this?

The solicitor is duty bound to clarify with the bank to make sure that they know 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.

The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
