Last March we completed a house move in Goodmayes. We have noticed several problems with the house which we suspect were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Do we have any recourse? Can you clarify the type of searches that needed to have been ordered as part of conveyancing in Goodmayes?
The query is not clear as what problems have arisen and if they are specific to conveyancing in Goodmayes. Conveyancing searches and due diligence initiated as part of the buying process are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, the vendor fills in a document referred to as a Seller’s Property Information Form. If the information provided is misleading, you may have a misrepresentation 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 Goodmayes.
At what point does exchange of contracts happen for sale conveyancing in Goodmayes and do I need to be at the solicitors branch?
If you are near to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Goodmayes you are welcome to come in to sign documents. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we work with offer countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give as equally diligent and professional a job for you when communicating with you electronically. The executing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. A signed contract simply enables the conveyancer to officially exchange at the suitable time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a long "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Goodmayes)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
