A few days ago out of the blue I received a email from our buyer who bought our house asking for our current address. I replied asking why they wanted our address seeing as we sold the house 18 months ago.
(Buyer was given my email by the estate agents after we had exchanged contracts, can't remember why but it was a few trivial questions I think)
The buyer replied back to me yesterday morning that he needs our address for his solicitor as they intend to take legal action for failure to disclose problem neighbours.
I filled out the disclosure questionnaire and I know for certain I did not lie on that form. I didn't disclose any disputes as there were no disputes.
I've spoken to my old next door neighbour and it seems this has come about as our buyer (buy to let investor) is having major issues with two properties/ families and is getting through a high number of Tennant's as they can't put up with the issues.
From what my old neighbour has said it sounds dreadful as she is currently doing her house up as she wants to sell and get out due to these issues.
One of the properties that is causing problems actually moved in after we exchanged contacts. About a week before we moved.
Do I need to disclose my address?
Do I need to get a solicitor involved?
