My brother and I have recently acquired a house in Skipton. 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 needed to have been carried out as part of conveyancing in Skipton?
The question is vague as to the nature of the problems and if they are specific to conveyancing in Skipton. Conveyancing searches and investigations undertaken as part of the buying process are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a seller completes a form referred to as a SPIF. answers turns out to be inaccurate, 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 Skipton.
