My brother and I have recently acquired a house in Newbury. We have noticed several issues with the house which we consider were missed in the conveyancing searches. What action can we take? Can you clarify the nature of searches that should have been carried out for conveyancing in Newbury?
It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are specific to conveyancing in Newbury. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated as part of the buying process are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a property owner completes a form referred to as a Seller’s Property Information Form. If the information is incorrect, you could possibly take legal action against the seller 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 Newbury.
