My partner and I are only a couple days away from an exchange on a property in Shirenewton and my mum and dad have sent the ten percent deposit to my lawyer. I am now informed that as the deposit has not arrived from me my solicitor needs to make a notification to my lender. I am advised that, in also acting for the bank he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than 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 delay the deal?
Your property lawyer is obliged to check with lender to ensure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. Your solicitor can only notify this to your mortgage company if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Shirenewton? What am I being asked for?
In order to comply with Money Laundering Regulations any Shirenewton conveyancing firm will require evidence of your identity in all conveyancing transactions. This is normally dealt with by provision of a passport and an original bank statement or utility account showing where you live.
In accordance with Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancing solicitors are obliged by law to check not just the identity of conveyancing clients but also the origin of monies that they receive in respect of any matter. Refusal to disclose this will result in your lawyer cancelling their relationship with you, as clearly this will cause a conflict between the set Regulations and a refusal to disclose.
Your property lawyers will have an obligation to inform the appropriate authorities should they believe that any amounts received by them may contravene the Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules.

Given you plan to refinance then TSB will require that you use a conveyancer on the TSB conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate. Your TSB conveyancing panel solicitor pays the new mortgage money into the estate, the estate pays off the old mortgage, the charge is released and you become the owner and the TSB mortgage is registered as a charge at the Land Registry.
