We are selling our house in Upton Park and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built land that was not decontaminated. A high street Upton Park lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers used a national conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Upton Park. Having lived in Upton Park for six years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. What do they say? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)
I'm buying my first flat in Upton Park with a loan from Britannia. The builders would not reduce the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The house builders rep advised me not to tell my lawyer about the deal as it will put at risk my mortgage with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer 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.
