I am nearing an exchange on a house in Wembley Park and my parents have transferred the 10% deposit to my property lawyer. I am now told that as the deposit has not come from me my conveyancer needs to make a notification to my lender. Apparently, in also acting for the mortgage company he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I informed the bank about my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?
Your lawyer is legally required to clarify with lender to make sure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. Your solicitor can only notify this to your lender if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
