Our nephew is about to exchange on a newly built flat in Thornton with a mortgage from Nationwide. His lawyer 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 engaged in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Nationwide conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when requested. 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 Nationwide conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

We can't see why they should be. Most conveyancing practitioner don't lend money. They should be governed by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, who set specific rules in relation to funds deposited on client account.
