My brother and I have lately acquired a property in Normanton. We have since encountered a number of issues with the property which we consider were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. What action can we take? What searches should? have been ordered for conveyancing in Normanton?
It is not clear from the question as to the nature of the problems and if they are specific to conveyancing in Normanton. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated as part of the buying process are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a seller answers a form called a SPIF. If the information turns out to be incorrect, 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 Normanton.
