Last November we completed a house move in Canary Wharf. We have since encountered a number of problems with the property which we believe were missed in the conveyancing searches. Do we have any recourse? Can you clarify the nature of searches that needed to have been ordered for conveyancing in Canary Wharf?
The question is not clear as what problems have arisen and if they are specific to conveyancing in Canary Wharf. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated as part of the buying process are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a property owner answers a document referred to as a SPIF. If the information ends up being inaccurate, you may have a misrepresentation claim 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 Canary Wharf.
I have justbecome aware that Action Conveyancing have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Canary Wharf for a purchase of a leasehold flat 18 months ago. How can I be sure that the property is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?
The easiest way to see if the premises is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Canary Wharf conveyancing specialists.
I'm buying my first flat in Canary Wharf with a mortgage from Nationwide Building Society. The builders would not budge the price so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The estate agent suggested that I not disclose to my conveyancer about the side-deal as it would adversely affect my loan with the lender. Is this normal?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

Could you suggest a conveyancing lawyer in Canary Wharf who can attest this legal document for me?
strictly speaking you should not need to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Normally any notary public or qualified solicitor will suffice regardless of whether they are Canary Wharf based
