I'm purchasing a new build house in Berrylands with a mortgage from Nationwide Building Society. The developers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The property agent suggested that I not reveal to my lawyer about the deal as it could put at risk my loan with Nationwide 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 CML website. CML 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%.

I am tempted by the attractive purchase price for a couple of apartments in Berrylands which have in the region of fifty years remaining on the lease term. Will this present a problem?
There are plenty of short leases in Berrylands. The lease is a legal document that entitles you to use the property for a period of time. As a lease gets shorter the value of the lease reduces and results in it becoming more costly to acquire a lease extension. This is why it is generally wise to increase the term of the lease. Sometimes it is difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease as mortgage lenders may be unwilling to lend money on properties of this type. Lease enfranchisement can be a protracted process. We recommend you get professional assistance from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this arena.
