We are getting closer to an exchange on a property in Kentish Town and my parents have sent the exchange deposit to my solicitor. I am now advised that as the deposit has been received from someone other than me my property lawyer needs to make a notification to my lender. Apparently, in also acting for the lender he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I disclosed to the mortgage company about my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really appropriate for him to raise this?
The conveyancer is obliged to clarify with the bank to ensure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. Your solicitor can only disclose this to your lender if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
