I am approaching an exchange on a property in Yateley and my mum and dad have transferred the ten percent deposit to my conveyancer. I am now advised that as the deposit has not come from me my property lawyer needs to make a notification to my mortgage company. 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 mortgage company concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for this now to delay the deal?

The property lawyer is duty bound to clarify with lender to make sure that they know that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. Your solicitor can only report this to your mortgage company if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

How does conveyancing in Yateley differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Yateley approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because builders in Yateley typically buy the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Yateley or who has acted in the same development.
