Our grandson is purchasing a newly built flat in Winchelsea with a mortgage from HSBC. His solicitor has said that there is a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?
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 HSBC conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer 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 HSBC conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

As is the case with lots of professional services, often recommendations from relatives can be very helpful. But there are numerous players in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, financial adviser and mortgage companies might all suggest solicitors to appoint. On occasion these conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but sometimes there behind the scenes commercial relationship behind the endorsement. You are free to appoint your own conveyancer. You need to be aware that many mortgage providers specify a panel list of law firms you must use for the mortgage aspect of your transaction.
