My partner and I have lately purchased a property in Copmanthorpe. We have noticed several issues with the property which we believe were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Do we have any recourse? What searches should? have been carried out as part of conveyancing in Copmanthorpe?
It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are relate to conveyancing in Copmanthorpe. Conveyancing searches and due diligence undertaken as part of the buying process are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a seller fills in a form referred to as a Seller’s Property Information Form. If the information ends up being inaccurate, you could possibly take legal action 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 Copmanthorpe.
