Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Addiscombe

Last June we completed a house move in Addiscombe. We have since encountered a number of issues with the property which we suspect were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? Can you clarify the type of searches that should have been ordered as part of conveyancing in Addiscombe?

It is not clear from the question as to the nature of the problems and if they are specific to conveyancing in Addiscombe. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated during the buying process are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a property owner completes a form referred to as a SPIF. answers ends up being misleading, then you may have a claim against the seller for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Addiscombe.
