Hello everyone again,
Another question. We are settling on another house on the 24th of feb. I got a call from the conveyencer yesterday and she stated that there was a search ( for title, council ect ect.) done in november last year and it was all clear. She said that because the search was done over three months ago, they are no longer valid and she highly recommended they get done again before settlement. I was always under the impression that this was paid for by the vendor, why is she asking me for money? It costs 300 bucks, not that money is huge but the house went on the market late october, and the search was done in early nov. It is a deceased estate and I dont believe anyone has lived there for the last three months. so I am not entirely sure why the search should be done again. I asked her but she replied just to be on the safe side.
I said yes to her, but now I am real curious about who pays.
thanks
Andy
