My husband and I are nearing an exchange on a flat in Sunbury and my mum and dad have sent the ten percent deposit to my lawyer. I am now told that as the deposit has not come from me my lawyer 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 not just from me. I advised the lender regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for this now to delay the deal?
Your solicitor is duty bound to check with the bank to make sure that they know 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.
