I am getting closer to an exchange on a property in Pensysarn and my mum and dad have sent the exchange deposit to my property lawyer. I am now informed that as the deposit has not arrived from me my lawyer needs to disclose this to my bank. Apparently, in also acting for the bank he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I advised the lender about my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for this now to be an issue?
