I am buying a new build house in Neath Abbey with the aid of help to buy. The developers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The house builders rep told me not inform my solicitor about the extras as it would 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%.
