Last January we completed a house move in Barton le Willows. We have noticed several issues with the house which we believe were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been ordered for conveyancing in Barton le Willows?
It is not clear from the question as to the nature of the problems and if they are unique to conveyancing in Barton le Willows. Conveyancing searches and investigations undertaken during the buying process are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a property owner fills in a form called a SPIF. If the information is incorrect, you could possibly take legal action against the owner 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 Barton le Willows.
