My partner and I have just purchased a house in Mousehole. We have noticed several problems with the house which we suspect were missed in the conveyancing searches. Do we have any recourse? Can you clarify the type of searches that needed to have been ordered for conveyancing in Mousehole?
The question is vague as what problems have arisen and if they are relate to conveyancing in Mousehole. Conveyancing searches and due diligence undertaken as part of the buying process are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a seller fills in a form called a Seller’s Property Information Form. If the information ends up being misleading, you could possibly take legal action 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 Mousehole.

Your solicitor will check the registered title as conveyancing in Mousehole will occasionally reveal restrictions in the title documents which prohibit categories of works or necessitated the permission of a 3rd party. Certain additions need local authority planning consent and approval under the building regulations. Some areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or impact extensions.

Have completed on a a detached house in Mousehole , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my title? My Mousehole conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain the post completion formalities are concluded.
As far as conveyancing in Mousehole registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any third persons or bodies. Currently in the region of 80% of such applications are fully addressed within two weeks but occasionally there can be longer delays. Registration takes place after the buyer has moved in to the property thus registration formalities is not always an essential issue but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
