My son-in-law is about to exchange on a house that has just been built in Deddington with a home loan from Clydesdale. His conveyancer has said that there is a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. This document is news to me - what is it and who needs sight of it?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Clydesdale 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 Clydesdale conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

You would be well advised to take a Home Buyer's Report. Given the residence was constructed more than a decade ago the property will not benefit from a warranty, so you don't want to take a risk. For a property that age with no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report could be enough. They will highlight any apparent issues and suggest additional investigation if relevant. If there are any signs of material issues seek a full Building Survey from the beginning.
