I am considering applying for a Coventry BS mortgage for purchase of a new build (under development) in Llanarth with 70% LTV. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for Coventry BS ?

I am purchasing a new build house in Llanarth with a mortgage from Leeds Building Society. The developers refused to reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The property agent advised me not reveal to my solicitor about this extras as it may adversely affect my mortgage with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
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%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you.
