My wife and I have lately bought a property in Manselton. We have since encountered a number of issues with the house which we consider were missed in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been ordered as part of conveyancing in Manselton?

The question is vague as what problems have arisen and if they are relate to conveyancing in Manselton. Conveyancing searches and due diligence undertaken during the legal transfer of property are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a seller fills in a form known as a Seller’s Property Information Form. answers turns out to be 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 Manselton.

I used Action Conveyancing a few years ago for my conveyancing in Manselton. I now require my file however the law firm has closed. What do I do?

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Manselton is the location of the property. Can you offer any guidance?

Flying freeholds in Manselton are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Manselton you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Manselton may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

Am I right to be suspicious by brokers that I am dealing with are suggesting a national conveyancing firm as opposed to a High Street Manselton conveyancing firm?

As with lots of professional services, often input from family and friends can be most helpful. But there are many parties with a keen interest in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, financial adviser and lenders may recommend conveyancers to appoint. On occasion these lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but occasionally there behind the scenes financial incentive behind the endorsement. You have the right to select your preferred lawyer. You need to be aware that many banks specify a panel list of conveyancers you must use for the lender related work in your transaction.

Am I best advised to use a Manselton conveyancing solicitor in close proximity to the house I am purchasing? I have an old university friend who can deal with the legal work however they are based 200miles away.

The primary upside of using a high street Manselton conveyancing practice is that you can pop in to execute documents, deliver your identification documents and apply pressure on them if necessary. They will also have local insight which is a plus. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will do a good and efficient job. If other friends have used your friend and in the main were happy that must trump using an unfamiliar Manselton conveyancing lawyer just because they are round the corner.
