Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Gotham. Is there a reason why all Gotham are not on all lender panels?
Pre- 2008 most lenders exhibited an attitude to risk which is different than today. The Financial Services Authority in 2010 carried out a thematic review into property fraud which in summary warned lenders: know the on your panel. Accordingly, mortgage companies have since soughtmore data from law firms regarding their processes and the staff employed by them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum number of transactions. Hundreds of law practices have found themselves excluded from lender panels even though they had 100% healthy disciplinary record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms were never going to satisfy the minimum amount of transactions the lenders required.
I am approaching an exchange on a flat in Gotham and my mum and dad have sent the exchange deposit to my . I am now advised that as the deposit has been sent from someone other than me my needs to make a notification to my bank. I am advised that, in also acting for the mortgage company he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I disclosed to the bank regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?
Your is duty bound to check with mortgage company to ensure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. Your solicitor can only report this to your mortgage company if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

Should I instruct a Gotham conveyancing practitioner in close proximity to the house I am purchasing? We have a good friend who can carry out the conveyancing however his firm is located 300miles drive away.
The primary upside of using a high street Gotham conveyancing practice is that you can visit the firm to sign paperwork, deliver your ID and pester them where appropriate. They will also have local knowledge which is a plus. However it's more important to get someone that will do a good and efficient job. If other friends have used your friend and they were impressed that should trump using an unknown Gotham conveyancing solicitor solely due to them being round the corner.
