I'm buying my first flat in Abergavenny benefiting from help to buy. The builders refused to move on the price so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The house builders rep advised me not to tell my lawyer about this extras as it may affect my loan with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.
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.

I have just appointed agents to market my garden flat in Abergavenny. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, but I have recently had a yearly maintenance charge demand – what should I do?
The sensible thing to do is discharge the maintenance contribution as normal as all rents and service payments will be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
