I had intended to instruct a property lawyer in Hersham for our home move. Our financial adviser has since notified us that our mortgage lenders Platform Home Loans Ltd won't deal with them. Why is this not regarded as unfair competition?
Lenders tend to restrict either the type or the amount of conveyancing firms on their member panel. A common example of such restriction(s) being that a firm must not be a sole practitioner. In addition to restricting the profile of firm, a few lenders have limited the number of firms they permit to represent them. Be aware that Platform Home Loans Ltd have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any member of Platform Home Loans Ltd Conveyancer Panel. Mortgage fraud was a primary driver in the reduction of solicitor panels a few years ago even though there remains differing opinions concerning the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Data from the Land Registry reveal that hundreds of law firms, including some in or near Hersham only perform very few conveyances a year.

I am buying a new build house in Hersham benefiting from help to buy. The builders would not reduce the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The property agent suggested that I not inform my conveyancer about the side-deal as it will affect my mortgage with The Mortgage Works. 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%.
