More about my loft conversion / survey report (see above threads).....

In investigating my suspicions that the loft conversion isn't supported


well

enough and not having these details picked up by a full building survey, I
have just quizzed some neighbours about the previous owners.

It appears that THEY did the conversion themselves, maybe some 13 or 14
years ago. However we have a letter from their solicitor stating that the
loft conversion was there when they moved in in 1991 and the owners


previous

to them had done no works in the previous 4 years.



I have just visited the Velux website to find that they have a serial number
for all of their windows. I've sent them an email with this windows details
so hopefully this should ascertain when the window was fitted - and hence
the loft conversion date.

In response to Aidens comment about me misrepresenting when I sell - I have
a bad feeling the previous sellers have no money to compensate me so I could
end up with no financial recompense. I am sure that most people would
therefore keep quiet about this and hope a new buyer accepts the
documentation I have showing the structure to be around 20 years old.


What did they do with the money that you paid for the property?

There could be a considerable loss to you of their lies.
Didn't one woman have to cough up £80k after she sold a property stating
there hadn't been any trouble with neighbours, when in fact the
neighbours were from hell and made the property practically unsaleable?
