Please help - my lawyer says that absentee landlord insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the level of cover for South Hornchurch conveyancing?

The right level of absentee landlord indemnity insurance should be dictated by who your lender. It would differ for example between Lloyds TSB Bank and Barnsley Building Society. Conveyancing solicitors as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.

I am purchasing a new build house in South Hornchurch with a mortgage from Accord Mortgages Ltd. The developers refused to reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The property agent suggested that I not reveal to my lawyer about the deal as it would put at risk 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 UK Finance website. UK Finance 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.
