We are getting closer to an exchange on a flat in Cilcain and my mum and dad have sent the 10% deposit to my lawyer. I am now advised that as the deposit has been sent from someone other than me my conveyancer needs to make a notification to my lender. I am advised that, in also acting for the mortgage company he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I informed the bank concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for him to raise this?

The solicitor is duty bound to clarify with mortgage company to make sure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. Your solicitor can only disclose this to your lender if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

Is there a reason why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Cilcain is more expensive?

The conveyancing fees for a leasehold property in Cilcain is inevitably more expensive as compared to a freehold property. This is because there is an amount of supplemental time necessary in communicating with the freeholder and managing agents to collate the evidence about whether the rent and service fee have been cleared and whether there are any major works due in the foreseeable future on repairs or maintenance of the block.

My Solicitor in Cilcain has never been on on the Halifax Solicitor Panel. Can I still use my prefered solicitor even though they are not on the Halifax approved list?

Your options are as follows:

1. Carry on with your preferred Cilcain solicitors but Halifax will need to retain a conveyancer on their panel. This will inevitably rack up the overall legal charges as well as cause delays.
2. Get an alternative practitioner to act in the purchase, remembering to check they are Halifax approved.
3. Try to convince your Halifax solicitor to attempt to join the Halifax panel

I require expedited conveyancing in Cilcain as I have an ultimatum to exchange contracts within one month. Fortunately I do not require a mortgage. Is it possible to escape the need for conveyancing searches to save fees and time?

If.Given you are are a cash purchaser you are at liberty not to have searches conducted although no solicitor would suggest that you don't.
