I'm purchasing a new build house in Millwall with a mortgage from National Westminster Bank. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead.

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.

I decided to have a survey done on a property in Millwall ahead of appointing solicitors. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. Our surveyor has said that some banks will not grant a mortgage on this type of premises.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Millwall.
