We reported in our March 2019 edition (p10) on the recent cases involving liability for Japanese knotweed growing on or adjacent to properties. Conveyancers acting for the S will send their client the Property Information Form (TA6) which ask S to indicate whether the property is affected by Japanese knotweed at question 7.8. S’s conveyancer should remind their client that an incorrect reply could leave the seller open to a claim in misrepresentation from a disgruntled buyer.
