I'm purchasing a new build house in Chelsfield with a mortgage from Santander. The builders would not move on the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The house builders rep suggested that I not reveal to my conveyancer about this extras as it could put at risk my loan with Santander. 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.

In my capacity as executor for the estate of my grandmother I am disposing of a house in Cardiff but I am based in Chelsfield. My solicitor (who is 250 miles from mehas requested that I sign a statutory declaration ahead of the transaction finalising. Could you suggest a conveyancing practitioner in Chelsfield who can attest this legal document for me?

Technically speaking you should not need to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Normally any notary public or solicitor will do regardless of whether they are based in Chelsfield
