Last September we completed a house move in Noak Hill. We have noticed several problems with the house which we believe were missed in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? Can you clarify the nature of searches that should have been conducted as part of conveyancing in Noak Hill?
It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are relate to conveyancing in Noak Hill. Conveyancing searches and due diligence undertaken as part of the legal transfer of property are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, the vendor fills in a document known as a SPIF. answers turns out to be incorrect, you may have a misrepresentation claim 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 Noak Hill.

I would like to rent out my leasehold flat in Noak Hill. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask her. Is permission from the freeholder required?
A lease dictates relations between the landlord and you the leaseholder; in particular, it will indicate if subletting is banned, or permitted but only subject to certain caveats. The accepted inference is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is allowed. The majority of leases in Noak Hill do not contain subletting altogether – such a clause would undoubtedly devalue the flat. Instead, there is usually a basic requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly supplying a duplicate of the sublease.
