I am getting closer to an exchange on a flat in Cottesmore and my mum and dad have sent the 10% deposit to my lawyer. I am now advised that as the deposit has not come from me my property lawyer needs to make a notification to my bank. Apparently, in also acting for the bank he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I advised the bank regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?

The lawyer is obliged to check with the bank to ensure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. The solicitor can only report this to your mortgage company if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Cottesmore? Why is this being asked of me?

Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering laws require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to verify the identification documents of the person or body they are dealing with prior to agreeing to accepting their conveyancing instruction. The Client Care letter that you need to sign should stipulate this. Your lender will also require certain documents to be checked. If you refuse to provide ID verification documents, your lawyer will not be able to take you on as a client.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Cottesmore is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Cottesmore are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Cottesmore you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Cottesmore may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
