Can you help? My Hatton Park solicitor is assuring me that he has toorder Hatton Park conveyancing searches asthe firm are on the Virgin Moneyapproved lawyer panel. Is this really necessary?
Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. As you are obtaining a home loan with a mortgage company your solicitor has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your property lawyer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your bank’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook requirements . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Hatton Park conveyancing searches.

I am purchasing a new build house in Hatton Park with the aid of help to buy. The developers refused to reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative suggested that I not reveal to my conveyancer about the extras as it may adversely affect my mortgage with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
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.
