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%.

My mum and dad are having problems in finding their Hebden Bridge land registry title on the website. They have a vague recollection 50 years ago when they bought the property there were complications concerning the address not being recognised in some systems.
Nearly all properties in Hebden Bridge should show up. Have you limited your search to simply the postcode. Usually it should disclose all the premises inside that postcode. Where recorded it will be there with a title number. If they bought sixty years ago it's conceivable it may be unrecorded. The address could still be revealed but with the title number identified as 'na'. In this scenario you will need to find the original title papers which could be with your parent’s bank.
