Did a property problem come to light after you bought?

WhenIBought is a Lexsure service for homeowners who discover an issue when selling or remortgaging and wonder what was known, investigated or explained at the time of purchase. It offers a conversation about what happened and, where the records allow, what lenders required at the time. It does not determine whether anyone was at fault.
