Last November we completed a house move in Eccles. We have since encountered a number of issues with the property which we consider were missed in the conveyancing searches. What action can we take? What searches should? have been carried out for conveyancing in Eccles?
The query is vague as to the nature of the problems and if they are specific to conveyancing in Eccles. Conveyancing searches and investigations undertaken during the buying process are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a seller fills in a questionnaire known as a Seller’s Property Information Form. answers provided is incorrect, 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 Eccles.

Almost all lenders have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Team at head office.

I am looking for a flat up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Eccles I like with open areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Eccles in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
If you require a mortgage that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.

We refuse to give any commission for sending work our way. We found it would be just too difficult a fee because home movers will think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
