Last January we completed a house move in Badminton. We have since encountered a number of issues with the house which we suspect were missed in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? Can you clarify the type of searches that should have been carried out as part of conveyancing in Badminton?
It is not clear from the question as to the nature of the problems and if they are unique to conveyancing in Badminton. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated as part of the legal transfer of property are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, the vendor fills in a document called a Seller’s Property Information Form. If the information provided is misleading, then you may have a claim against the vendor 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 Badminton.
