Our grandson is purchasing a newly built flat in Thamesmead with a home loan from Lloyds. His solicitor has said that there is a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
The form is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Lloyds conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor 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 Lloyds conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

It is true that some lenders now use CQS as the kick off point for Panel membership such as HSBC and Santander. The Law Society’s CQS membership however gives no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. That being said,the Council of Mortgage Lenders have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitor practices wishing to remain on their approved list of firms.
It is unclear whether my mortgage offer obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called my Thamesmead bank branch on various occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they would lend. My Thamesmead conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- called to say that they would not lend based on their specific requirements. Who do I believe?
Your solicitor must follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook Part 2 specifications for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
Intending to buy a flat in Thamesmead.

I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Barclays conveyancing panel.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Thamesmead conveyancer is on the Barclays conveyancing panel.
