There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Mexborough and Swinton registration formalities.

Registration occurs once the buyer has moved in to the premises so registration formalities is not always primary concern yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I am purchasing a new build house in Mexborough and Swinton with a loan from The Royal Bank of Scotland. The builders refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The house builders rep suggested that I not inform my lawyer about this deal as it may jeopardize 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.
