Our son is purchasing a newly built flat in Barton under Needwood with a home loan from Kent Reliance. His solicitor has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when asked. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in Barton under Needwood I like with open areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Barton under Needwood for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a home loan that many years will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
