My husband and I are only a couple days away from an exchange on a house in Elland and my mum and dad have transferred the exchange deposit to my property lawyer. I am now informed that as the deposit has not arrived from me my conveyancer needs to make a notification to my mortgage company. 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 informed the bank about my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for this now to be an issue?
Your property lawyer is legally required to clarify with the bank to make sure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only notify this to your lender if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
