We are nearing an exchange on a house in Par and my mum and dad have sent the 10% deposit to my solicitor. I am now told that as the deposit has been sent from someone other than me my lawyer needs to make a notification to my lender. I am advised that, in also acting for the lender he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I informed the mortgage company about my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really appropriate for him to raise this?
