My brother and I have recently acquired a house in Hedge End. We have since encountered a number of issues with the house which we believe were omitted in the conveyancing searches. Do we have any recourse? Can you clarify the nature of searches that should have been conducted for conveyancing in Hedge End?

The question is vague as to the nature of the problems and if they are unique to conveyancing in Hedge End. Conveyancing searches and due diligence initiated during the buying process are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a property owner completes a form called a SPIF. If the information proves to be misleading, 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 Hedge End.
