Hi Tt,

In fact under current law society rulings, balance 4%/ 9% should be addressed to the lawyer rather than the seller. This is done so as to protect the interests of the buyers if anything goes wrong in the deal.

Its better just to lose 1% rather than 5%/ 10% right?

Probably the salesperson who is representing your mum does not clearly explain the procedures to her.

No worries, if you want to be more assured, you can contact the law firm that is representing your mom's in her property purchase to have a clearer picture.

Cheers! Hope I have answered your query.

Feel free to contact me if you need any assistance or any clarifications. Hope to assist your family in future.

Warmest Regards,
