My grandson is about to exchange on a newly built flat in Clacton On Sea with a home loan from RBS. His solicitor has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
The form is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the RBS 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 RBS conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Searches are not likely to feature in any delay in conveyancing in Clacton On Sea.
It has been 4 months following my purchase conveyancing in Clacton On Sea completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
I am buying a new build house in Clacton On Sea benefiting from help to buy. The builders would not reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent told me not disclose to my lawyer about the deal as it would put at risk my mortgage with the bank. 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%.
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.
My hope is to acquire a ground floor apartment in Clacton On Sea. Conveyancing solicitor is waiting for, from the owner, building insurance paperwork. This morning I was advised that the seller needs to forward the insurance paperwork for the flat above as well. Why does my property lawyer want to check the insurance for the flat above? Is it really necessary? We have been stalled for the last 3 weeks…
It is not impossible in leasehold conveyancing in Clacton On Sea to discover Conveyancing in Clacton On Sea in a minority of cases reveals that the lease obliges the tenant's to insure their individual flats as opposed to the landlord insuring the complete property - which is definitely better. You should check with your solicitor but it would appear that your solicitor is attempting to establish that the complete building is insured. Insuring a ground floor flat is no help when it comes to rebuilding after a fire if the other flat cannot be rebuilt due to lack of insurance.
