My wife and I have just bought a house in Tonteg. We have noticed several problems with the property which we consider were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. What action can we take? What searches should? have been carried out as part of conveyancing in Tonteg?
It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are relate to conveyancing in Tonteg. Conveyancing searches and due diligence initiated as part of the legal transfer of property are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, the vendor fills in a questionnaire known as a SPIF. If the information ends up being incorrect, then you may have a claim 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 Tonteg.

From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
