The purchaser’s lawyers should also conduct an enviro search. This should disclose if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, further investigations will need to be made.
I am buying a new build house in Plymstock with a mortgage from HSBC Bank. The sellers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The sale representative suggested that I not disclose to my conveyancer about this side-deal as it could jeopardize my mortgage with HSBC Bank. 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%.
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.
