My brother and I have lately purchased a house in Burnham. We have since encountered a number of problems with the house which we consider were omitted in the conveyancing searches. Do we have any recourse? What searches should? have been conducted as part of conveyancing in Burnham?
The question is vague as to the nature of the problems and if they are unique to conveyancing in Burnham. Conveyancing searches and investigations undertaken during the buying process are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, the vendor answers a questionnaire called a SPIF. answers is misleading, then you may have a 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.

How does conveyancing in Burnham differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Burnham approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because builders in Burnham usually acquire the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Burnham or who has acted in the same development.
