I've been having an issue with my house for some time, we bought it as a three bed house, but it turns out its only classed as two bedroom because the previous owner had converted the attic into the third bedroom without plans or building regs, because of the time from purchase to now, we have no recourse on the previous owner, we've approached the estate agent who listed the property and shown them the brochure listing the house as 3 bed, they don't want to know and suggested we approach the surveyor who did the survey, we have and have never had any paperwork relating to the survey, so we've approach the mortgage advisor, he pointed us in the direction of the solicitor who acted on our behalf, they have no paperwork and suggested contacting Alliance & Leicester (now Santander) to ask for any correspondence relating to us, they wrote back saying they have nothing and never have.
I'm smelling an elephant sized rat and am now wondering what else I can do?
Any suggestions?
