I am about to exchange on the purchase of a house in Seaforth but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree recompense from the seller of £2k in the form of a deduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of amending the contract but Lloyds are not allowing this. Why were they informed?
Any solicitor that is on a Lloyds conveyancing panel is obliged to disclose to Lloyds of any amendments to the purchase price. If you prohibit your property lawyer to notify the price change to Lloyds then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Lloyds and you would have to appoint a new solicitor for your conveyancing in Seaforth.
Why do I have to pay up front for conveyancing in Seaforth?
If you are buying a property in Seaforth your solicitor will request that you place them with monies to cover the search fees. This will be the total of the cost of the conveyancing searches. When the down payment is as part of the total price then this will be needed immediately before contracts are exchanged. The closing balance that is needed should be sent to your lawyer a couple of days prior to the completion date.

I am purchasing a new build house in Seaforth with the aid of help to buy. The developers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative advised me not disclose to my solicitor about the extras as it will impact my mortgage with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
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.
