Our grandson is about to exchange on a house that has just been built in Rhayader with a mortgage from Yorkshire BS. His conveyancer has said that there is a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
The form is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor when requested. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.
Are the Rhayader conveyancing solicitors identified as being on the Nationwide conveyancing panel, together with their details provided by Nationwide?
Rhayader conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Nationwide conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Nationwide directly.

Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with UBS. Rhayader conveyancing solicitors are instructed. How long does it take for UBS to forward the offer to the solicitor?
There is no definitive answer here. Have UBS done the survey? Have you informed UBS as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the UBS conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
My fiancee and I are spending time viewing apartments in Rhayader and I am about to put in an offer. Should I already have a conveyancing practitioner in place at this point? I will be getting a mortgage with Yorkshire BS.

I am purchasing a new build house in Rhayader with the aid of help to buy. The developers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The house builders rep told me not inform my lawyer about this extras as it would affect my loan with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.
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.
I am looking for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one close by in Rhayader I like with open areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 52 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Rhayader suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the shortness of the lease may be problematic. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.
