I'm purchasing my first flat in Rhayader with a loan from Leeds Building Society. The sellers would not move on the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The sale representative suggested that I not disclose to my lawyer about the extras as it would impact my mortgage with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
