My son-in-law is about to exchange on a newly built flat in South Oxhey with a home loan from Santander. His solicitor has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Santander conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when asked. 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 Santander conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.
Do I have to have a meeting at the offices of the solicitor to execute the legal charge? If so, I will instruct a firm who offer conveyancing in South Oxhey so that I can attend their offices when needed.

I'm the only beneficiary of my late father’s estate and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in South Oxhey. The South Oxhey property was put into my name in April. I want to move. I understand that there is a CML six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the property in April. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook requires conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be affected by that. many banks would take a pragmatic view as this obligation principally exists to capture the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of properties.
