We are approaching an exchange on a property in Hampshire and my parents have transferred the 10% deposit to my lawyer. I am now informed that as the deposit has been received from someone other than me my conveyancer needs to disclose this 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 advised the mortgage company regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?

The lawyer is obliged to clarify with lender to ensure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. The solicitor can only report this to your bank if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
