Last July we completed a house move in Kirkdale. We have since encountered a number of issues with the house which we believe were omitted in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been carried out as part of conveyancing in Kirkdale?
It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are relate to conveyancing in Kirkdale. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated as part of the buying process are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a property owner fills in a form known as a SPIF. answers is misleading, 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 Kirkdale.

Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees.
