I'm purchasing a new build house in Meopham with a loan from Platform Home Loans Ltd. The developers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The estate agent advised me not reveal to my conveyancer about the deal as it could affect my loan with Platform Home Loans Ltd. 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%.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and found one round the corner in Meopham I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Meopham for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage that many years will likely be problematic. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
