520 _aDraws attention to the fact that the Property Misdescriptions Act 1991 applies to property developers as well as estate agents and vendors. Looks at relevant case law where developers have been found guilty of misdescription under the 1991 Act. Misdescription is a criminal offence, which could result in an unlimited fine. Examines also case law where developers have been found guilty of misrepresentation. Developers should take particular care in answering enquiries raised during the conveyancing procedure about neighbour disputes over boundaries and access as well as enquiries relating to the redevelopment of dilapidated properties. Developers must ensure that members of their staff are fully aware of these areas of the law.
