My wife and I are acquiring a newly built duplex in Chorlton and my conveyancer is informing me that she has to the mortgage company to reveal incentives from the developer. I am nearing the developer’s deadline to exchange and I don't want to prolong matters. Is my lawyer right?

You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your lawyer. A precondition to being on a lender panel is to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements. The CML Conveyancing Handbook requires that your lawyer have the appropriate Disclosure of Incentive form completed by the developer and accepted by your lender.
