I am buying a new build house in Fir Vale and Wadsley Bridge with a loan from Platform Home Loans Ltd. The builders refused to budge the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The house builders rep advised me not reveal to my conveyancer about the extras as it may put at risk my mortgage with the bank. Is this normal?.
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.
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.
