Last March we completed a house move in Tidworth. We have noticed several issues with the house which we believe were missed in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? Can you clarify the type of searches that should have been carried out for conveyancing in Tidworth?
The query is not clear as what problems have arisen and if they are specific to conveyancing in Tidworth. Conveyancing searches and due diligence initiated as part of the buying process are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a property owner answers a form called a SPIF. answers ends up being incorrect, you could possibly take legal action against the seller 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 Tidworth.
Various web forums that I have frequented warn that are the main reason for obstruction in Tidworth house deals. Is there any truth in this?

- A significant proportion of the delay in leasehold conveyancing in Tidworth can be reduced where you get in touch lawyers as soon as you market your property and ask them to collate the leasehold documentation needed by the buyers’ conveyancers.

If this applies to your lease, it would be prudent to notify your estate agents to make sure that the purchasers put in hand bank and professional references. Any bank reference should make it clear that the buyer is able to meet the annual service charge and the actual amount of the service charge should be quoted in the bank’s letter. You will therefore need to provide your estate agents with the service charge figures so that they can pass this information on to the purchasers or their solicitors. You believe that you know the number of years remaining on your lease but it would be wise to double-check by asking your conveyancers. A buyer’s lawyer will be unlikely to recommend their client to proceed with the purchase of a leasehold property the remaining number of years is below 80 years. It is therefore important at an early stage that you consider whether the lease term requires a lease extension. If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your premises on the market for sale.
