My brother and I have just acquired a property in Catshill. We have since encountered a number of issues with the house which we consider were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been ordered as part of conveyancing in Catshill?
It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are unique to conveyancing in Catshill. Conveyancing searches and investigations undertaken as part of the legal transfer of property are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a property owner completes a form known as a SPIF. If the information provided is inaccurate, you could possibly take legal action 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 Catshill.
