My husband and I are only a couple days away from an exchange on a house in Aldersgate and my parents have sent the 10% deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now told that as the deposit has not come from me my property lawyer needs to make a notification to my lender. Apparently, 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 home loan, so is it really appropriate for this now to delay the deal?

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

I'm buying my first flat in Aldersgate with a loan from Platform Home Loans Ltd. The sellers refused to reduce the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent told me not disclose to my conveyancer about this side-deal as it could affect my mortgage with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

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.
