After a bit of advice with this one really. Started the process of selling/buying in Feb. Got to this point now where we are stuck, a section of the garage is not in the boundaries of the house we are buying. It seems to be in no mans land. Its been this way since it was built 30 years ago.
My solicitor suggested we get an indemnity policy on it, which the seller did to the tune of a max of £260k if someone comes and claims the land or whatever. Now my solicitor has decided they want the seller to claim the land themselves (which can take months), plus it is his deceased parents house which will make it even more complicated I am guessing?!
I have told the solicitor I am happy to accept the risk as long as the indemnity policy will pay out for us to rebuild the garage and slight loss of value of the house.
Question is, am I doing the right thing? Anything I am overlooking? I am just starting to lose the will here as my solicitors is full of non helpful people who just seem intent on dragging this on!
