There is no definitive answer here. Have Lloyds conducted the survey? Have you informed Lloyds as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Lloyds conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.

My partner and I are at the point of looking at houses in St Leonard Shoreditch and I am about to put in an offer. Is it sensible to have my conveyancing practitioner on ‘stand by’? I am planning to take a home loan with Santander.

I am buying my first flat in St Leonard Shoreditch with a loan from Accord Mortgages Ltd. The builders refused to budge the price so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The estate agent told me not to tell my solicitor about this side-deal as it would put at risk my mortgage with Accord Mortgages Ltd. Should I keep quiet?.

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%.

I have selected a local conveyancing solicitor in St Leonard Shoreditch. What do I do now? When should I get the mortgage application with Virgin Money started with Virgin Money?

It is usual to have concerns where there is an associated chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, St Leonard Shoreditch conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you must ensure that your solicitor is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. As to the subsequent phase this very much dictated by the circumstances of your transaction, desire for this property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market some buyers would apply for the mortgage with Virgin Money and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their lawyer to proceed with the conveyancing in St Leonard Shoreditch.
