My partner and I are only a couple days away from an exchange on a flat in Buckfastleigh and Dean and my mum and dad have sent the 10% deposit to my solicitor. I am now advised that as the deposit has not come from me my conveyancing practitioner needs to make a notification to my lender. I am advised that, 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 lender about my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really appropriate for this now to be an issue?

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