Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Camberley. What is the rationale as to why all Camberley conveyancers are not on all lender panels?

Even though it may seem unfair for banks to restrict who can represent them, from the public’s or solicitor’s viewpoint, the the contrary view is that lenders are becoming ever more anxious and regard it imperative to protect them from illegal activities. As a consequence of this concern lenders have reduced their panel of approved conveyancing lawyers to a size that they are happy to control.

The person best placed to deal with your concern is your conveyancer who should calculate whether he or she is should be discussing with the mortgage company, vendor’s representatives, selling agents or indeed all three given the history of your conveyancing as of today.

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%.
