My partner and I are getting closer to an exchange on a house in Paignton and my parents have sent the 10% deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now told that as the deposit has not arrived from me my conveyancing practitioner needs to make a notification to my bank. Apparently, 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 informed the lender about my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really appropriate for him to raise this?
Your lawyer is obliged to check with lender to make sure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only notify this to your bank if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

Should my conveyancer be asking questions regarding flooding as part of the conveyancing in Paignton.
The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for solicitors dealing with homes in Paignton. There are those who purchase a property in Paignton, fully expectant that at some time, it may be flooded. However, leaving to one side the physical damage, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, suitable insurance cover, or sell the property. There are steps that can be taken during the course of a property purchase to forewarn the purchaser.
Solicitors are not best placed to offer advice on flood risk, however there are a numerous searches that can be undertaken by the purchaser or by their lawyers which can figure out the risks in Paignton. The conventional set of property information forms sent to a purchaser’s lawyer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a standard inquiry of the owner to determine whether the property has suffered from flooding. In the event that flooding has previously occurred and is not notified by the vendor, then a buyer may bring a compensation claim as a result of such an inaccurate response. A buyer’s solicitors will also order an enviro search. This will disclose whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, additional investigations should be initiated.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Paignton with a mortgage from Skipton Building Society. The developers would not move on the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent told me not to tell my solicitor about the extras as it would jeopardize my mortgage with Skipton Building Society. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the UK Finance website. UK Finance form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
My husband and I plan to buy our 1st house in Paignton. Conveyancing practitioner already instructed. The financial consultant pointed out that a survey is not necessary as the property is just 20 yrs old.
At the very least you should order a Home Buyer's Report. Given the property is more than 10 years old the property will be without a warranty, so you don't want to take a risk. For a property that age with no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report may be enough. They will highlight any obvious problems and recommend further investigation if appropriate. If there are any signs of material issues get a comprehensive structural survey.
