I'm buying a new build house in Winchelsea benefiting from help to buy. The developers would not move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The house builders rep told me not to tell my solicitor about the deal as it will jeopardize my mortgage with the lender. Is this normal?.
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%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

Two months into purchasing a house in Winchelsea. Conveyancing solicitor has told us the title is "Leasehold". Will this likely make a difference on our Santander valuation?
Winchelsea conveyancing does not usually involve leasehold houses. The key consideration here is the unexpired lease term and the ground rent. If there are over a hundred years remaining with a nominal rent, it's virtually freehold, so it’s unlikely to affect the value significantly.
On the flip side, if it's, say, 50 years it will have a material impact on the saleability, and probably wouldn't be acceptable to the lender. The remaining lease term and ground rent will be set out in the lease provided to your conveyancer.
