We are approaching an exchange on a house in Denham and my mum and dad have transferred the exchange deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now informed that as the deposit has been sent from someone other than me my conveyancer needs to disclose this to my bank. Apparently, in also acting for the lender he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I informed the lender about my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for this now to delay the deal?
Your conveyancing practitioner is duty bound to clarify with the bank to ensure that they understand 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.
Is it necessary during the course of the conveyancing process to have a meeting at the offices of the solicitor to execute the mortgage deed? If so, I will choose one who does conveyancing in Denham so that I can attend their offices if required.
Whereas this was necessary twenty years ago, the vast majority banks no longer need their conveyancing panel solicitor to witness the mortgagors signature. It will still be necessary for you to hand over ID documents and there are still manifest benefits to instructing a locally based practitioner, in your case a conveyancing solicitor in Denham.

About to purchase flat in Denham. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Denham conveyancer is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel.

Have purchased a a terraced house in Denham , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my proprietorship? My Denham conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain the registration is dealt with.

I have been pointed in your direction by two or three local selling agents in Denham to choose a solicitor on your site. Is there a financial inducement for Estate Agents to promote your services over another?
We refuse to give any commission for sending work to this site. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission because home movers will think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.
