We are getting closer to an exchange on a property in Botley and my mum and dad have sent the ten percent deposit to my property lawyer. I am now told that as the deposit has not come from me my conveyancer 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 not just from me. I disclosed to the mortgage company about my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for this now to delay the deal?

Your lawyer is legally required to check with lender to make sure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only report this to your mortgage company if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Botley is where the house is located. Can you offer any guidance?

Flying freeholds in Botley are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Botley 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.

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 premises.
