My partner and I are buying a newly constructed apartment in Burton Latimer and my solicitor is advising me that she has to the bank to reveal incentives from the developer. I am under pressure to exchange contracts and I have no desire to delay the conveyancing. Is my lawyer right?
You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your conveyancing practitioner. A precondition to being on a mortgage company panel is to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions. The CML Conveyancing Handbook requires that your lawyer have the appropriate Disclosure of Incentive form completed by the developer and accepted by your lender.

How does conveyancing in Burton Latimer differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Burton Latimer approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is finished. This is because house builders in Burton Latimer tend to purchase the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Burton Latimer or who has acted in the same development.
