I'm purchasing a new build house in Shawbury with a loan from The Royal Bank of Scotland. The sellers would not move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The sale representative advised me not to tell my solicitor about the extras as it will put at risk my loan with the lender. Is this normal?.
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.

My financial adviser has suggested using their lawyer for the conveyancing in Shawbury - Is it not simpler advisable to just instruct them?
This is not necessarily the case and you are free to use whichever conveyancer you decide for your Shawbury home move. A conveyancing practitioner put forward by a 3rd party adviser may not necessarily be the right solicitor, they may suggest their own conveyancing firm who are based remotely. In this instance you may not have contact with your lawyer and due to the lack of continuity in the transaction, it may be difficult to obtain updates.
