You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your Blyth conveyancing solicitor to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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%.
