I decided to go with a high street firm for my conveyancing in Newton Abbot last week. Upon checking the Terms it is apparent thatI am liable for charges even if the dealdoes not go ahead. Should I ditch them and instruct a web based conveyancing brokerage who offer no completion no cost conveyancing in Newton Abbot?

I am buying a new build house in Newton Abbot with a mortgage from Birmingham Midshires. The sellers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The property agent told me not disclose to my conveyancer about this extras as it could put at risk my mortgage with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

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%.

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.
