My husband and I are purchasing a newly constructed duplex in Snettisham and my conveyancer is telling me that she has to the lender to disclose incentives from the developer. I am nearing the developer’s deadline to exchange and my preference is not to delay matters. Is my lawyer right?
You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your conveyancing practitioner. A precondition to being on a lender panel is to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications. The CML Conveyancing Handbook requires that your lawyer have the appropriate Disclosure of Incentive form completed by the developer and accepted by your lender.
I have a decision in principle. The lender mentioned the loan came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to use their panel lawyer as I would much rather instruct a Snettisham based conveyancing firm?
Do check but the chances are that give you one of their panel solicitors should you accept the "fee-free" deal. Contact the mortgage company and check if they make available a monetary alternative. In the past a few mortgage companies offered a £250 cashback as a further option in which case you could put that amount towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor in Snettisham.
