I'm looking for a bit of information..... I'm doing some research to try and compile a list of reasons (however obscure) that a house sale might be declared invalid or null & void. Can anyone advise under what circumstances this might occur? I am thinking here of a situation where the exchange has taken place, money has been transferred and both the sellers and buyers have moved into their new homes. Are there any conditions under which a completed sale might be reversed, declared invalid or everything 'reset'? I know that it would probably end up going to court as I guess something like this couldn't be just unwound by the solicitors involved.
So I'm looking for any circumstances under which a reversal might take place, doesn't matter how unlikely or unusual they are. Thanks.
