I'm purchasing my first flat in Tadley benefiting from help to buy. The builders refused to budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The property agent advised me not inform my lawyer about the side-deal as it would put at risk my mortgage with the bank. Is this normal?.
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.

As is the case with many service providers, often suggestions from connections can be very helpful. Nevertheless there are many parties with a keen interest in a conveyancing matter; estate agents, mortgage brokers and banks may suggest conveyancers to select. Sometimes the conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but occasionally there is an underlying financial incentive behind the endorsement. You are at liberty to appoint your own conveyancer. Don't forget that most mortgage providers operate an approved list of conveyancers you must use for the mortgage related work in your home move.
