Our god-son is buying a newly built flat in Penmaenmawr with a home loan from Santander. His solicitor has said that there is a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
The form is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Santander 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 Santander conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

I am the sole recipient of my late mum's will with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Penmaenmawr. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in August. I want to move. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my property ownership could be considered the same way as if I'd bought the house in August. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you could be affected by that. Most banks would take a sensible view as this provision is primarily there to capture subsales or the flipping of properties.

How does conveyancing in Penmaenmawr differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Penmaenmawr approach us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Penmaenmawr usually acquire 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 Penmaenmawr or who has acted in the same development.
