Deposit question

Hello all,

After finishing 2014 in a dissapointed way as i was outbid in two properties i put an offer.

i have spent January to digest that and now mid february i am back on house hunting.

My situation has changed slightly. In Christmas, my father sold a piece of land and he gave me £2,300 cash from that sale.

I am spanish, from a small town and people still do transactions in cash.

i thought to use that cash for an emergency i might have the day i buy.

However, could i use that money within my budget so i could strech in case i need to? would that be a problem when it comes to justify that money?
