Our nephew is in the process of securing a new build apartment in Westerham with a home loan from Co-operative. His lawyer has said that there is a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?

The document 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 Co-operative conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor 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 Co-operative conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

My husband and I have just become aware that one of the partners of the law firm handling the purchase conveyancing in Westerham is related to the vendor. Is this allowed?

On the basis that no conflict arises this is allowable. Where you are obtaining a mortgage then the bank may have a say as many lenders have specific requirements on this. For example for RBS - Direct Line One as of 17/1/2025, the requirements read as follows :

1.15- May your firm act if the person dealing with the transaction or a member of his immediate family is the borrower?

No, your firm may not act if the person dealing with the transaction or a member of his immediate family is the borrower. However, your firm may act if a separate fee earner or separate partner within the firm acts for us.
