My wife and I have lately purchased a property in Chesham Bois. We have since encountered a number of issues with the property which we believe were omitted in the conveyancing searches. What action can we take? Can you clarify the nature of searches that needed to have been ordered as part of conveyancing in Chesham Bois?
The query is vague as what problems have arisen and if they are unique to conveyancing in Chesham Bois. Conveyancing searches and investigations undertaken during the buying process are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, the vendor completes a questionnaire referred to as a SPIF. answers turns out to be inaccurate, 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 Chesham Bois.

Have completed on a a semi-detached house in Chesham Bois , how long should it take for the Land Registry to register my ownership? My Chesham Bois conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to check that my name is recorded.
As far as conveyancing in Chesham Bois registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. As of today approximately three quarters of submission are fully dealt with within two weeks but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Registration takes place once the purchaser has moved in to the premises so 'speed' is not typically top priority but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer could contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent told us that the seller will only issue a contract if we use the agent's preferred conveyancers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a family solicitor who is accustomed to conveyancing in Chesham Bois
We suspect that the owner is unaware of this requirement. Should the seller desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious buyer is not the way to achieve this. Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with finances arranged © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to use your preferred Chesham Bois conveyancing solicitors - as opposed tothose that will provide the estate agent a commission or hit his conveyancing targets pre-set by senior management.
