My husband and I are nearing an exchange on a house in Tadcaster and my mum and dad have transferred the ten percent deposit to my property lawyer. I am now informed that as the deposit has not come from me my solicitor needs to disclose this to my mortgage company. Apparently, in also acting for the mortgage company he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I advised the lender regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really appropriate for him to raise this?

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

After shopping around on the internet I have found a Tadcaster conveyancing practitioner having made sure that they are on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?

Yorkshire BS will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Yorkshire BS will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Tadcaster surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.
