My wife and I are only a couple days away from an exchange on a flat in Y Felinheli 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 conveyancing practitioner 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 advised the bank about my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for this now to delay the deal?
The conveyancing practitioner is duty bound to clarify with mortgage company to make sure that they know that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. Your solicitor can only notify this to your bank if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Y Felinheli and elsewhere in England and Wales is often a confrontational experience. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is an abundance of room for friction between you and others involved in the legal transfer of property. For example, the vendor, selling agent and on occasion the bank. Selecting a solicitor for your conveyancing in Y Felinheli is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY person in the legal process whose responsibility is to act in your best interests and to protect you.

As an example, the property agent may claim to be helping by suggesting your conveyancer is dragging his heels. Or your financial adviser may advise you to do something that is against your solicitors advice. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties when it comes to the legal transfer of property.
