I'm buying a new build house in Boscastle with a mortgage from TSB. The builders would not reduce the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The estate agent suggested that I not inform my conveyancer about this extras as it may impact my loan with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

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%.
