[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 1109425, member: 45598"] I can't help you re the neighbour but you might have a misrepresentation claim against the previous owner if they concealed information and in doing so induced you into the sale. The only problem being that the remedy is damages and its hard to quantify what that would be in this case, how does one quantify the diminuation in value in a case like this considering its not a structural defect? Could be that you have a legitimate case but aren't entitled to anything more than nominal damages which is a bit of a **** place to be admittedly. More info: [URL='https://www.ashtonslegal.co.uk/insights/news-for-individuals/misrepresentation-in-property/#:~:text=Property%20Misrepresentation,-If%20the%20buyer&text=Misrepresentation%20is%20where%20one%20party,decision%20to%20enter%20into%20it']https://www.ashtonslegal.co.uk/insights/news-for-individuals/misrepresentation-in-property/#:~:text=Property Misrepresentation,-If the buyer&text=Misrepresentation is where one party,decision to enter into it[/URL]. If you haven't already it might be worth consulting a solicitor and the police - I'm not sure exactly how they could help but this is obviously one of the biggest transactions and commitments of your life and this would only cost time at first instance.
