Me and my brother have a 4 bedroom Edwardian property in Bidford On Avon. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and Alliance & Leicester . I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the matching property.

I'm purchasing a new build house in Bidford On Avon with the aid of help to buy. The developers would not move on the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The property agent suggested that I not reveal to my lawyer about the deal as it will affect my mortgage 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.
