My husband and I are only a couple days away from an exchange on a property in Culcheth and my mum and dad have sent the ten percent deposit to my property lawyer. I am now advised that as the deposit has not arrived from me my solicitor needs to make a notification to my lender. I am advised that, in also acting for the bank he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I disclosed to the lender about my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really appropriate for him to raise this?
Your conveyancing practitioner is obliged to clarify with lender to ensure 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 permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
