My partner and I have recently purchased a property in Maesteg. We have since encountered a number of problems with the property which we consider were missed in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been carried out as part of conveyancing in Maesteg?
The query is vague as what problems have arisen and if they are relate to conveyancing in Maesteg. 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 process, a seller fills in a questionnaire known as a SPIF. answers turns out to be misleading, 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 Maesteg.
