My son is buying a newly built flat in Holbrook with a home loan from Barclays. His lawyer has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
The form is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Barclays conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor when requested. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Barclays conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Where copies can’t be located, your solicitor can arrange cover in the form of insurance or indemnities protecting you against future claims on the premises.
How does conveyancing in Holbrook differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Holbrook contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is completed. This is because house builders in Holbrook typically buy the site, 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 used to new build conveyancing in Holbrook or who has acted in the same development.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in last month in what should have been a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Holbrook is where the house is located. Can you offer any assistance?

You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
