My son-in-law is purchasing a newly built flat in South Norwood with a home loan from Lloyds. His lawyer has said that there is a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Lloyds 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 Lloyds conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Should she appoint a lawyer to update the title information for the house?
The is no need to update the register providing you have the proof required to demonstrate how the name change resulted.
The purchaser’s solicitor should examine the registered information and need evidence by way of proof of the change of name e.g. marriage certificates.
