I'm purchasing a new build house in East Beckton with a mortgage from Barclays . The sellers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The property agent advised me not reveal to my conveyancer about the deal as it would put at risk my loan with Barclays . Is this normal?.
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.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in East Beckton I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, however it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in East Beckton suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be problematic. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.
