I am purchasing a new build house in Steyning with a loan from Britannia. The sellers would not move on the price so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The sale representative advised me not reveal to my conveyancer about the deal as it could put at risk my loan 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 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%.
