My wife and I have just bought a house in Frampton Cotterell. We have noticed several issues with the house which we believe were omitted in the conveyancing searches. What action can we take? What searches should? have been ordered for conveyancing in Frampton Cotterell?
It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are unique to conveyancing in Frampton Cotterell. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated as part of the buying process are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the process, the vendor completes a document referred to as a Seller’s Property Information Form. answers proves to be incorrect, then you may have a claim 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 Frampton Cotterell.

I’m about to sell my garden apartment in Frampton Cotterell. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, however I have recently received a quarterly maintenance charge demand – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?
It best that you discharge the service charge as usual because all rents and maintenance payments will be apportioned on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
