Hi,
7 years ago my brother and his wife built their own house. They retained a solicitor and an engineer in order to draw down a mortgage. They paid both for the services and have been living in the house and paying the mortgage ever since.
Lately the solicitor has told my brother that the law society and the bank are on his case to furnish a cert of compliance, and it now transpires that the engineer wants €2k to issue this cert. My brother is adamant that he paid all that was due and can't understand why this would be an issue 7years down the road. Plus both he and his wife were made redundant are just don't have €2k.
Surely the professionals my brother hired at the time should have done their due diligence and the bank should not have released the mortgage unless all the paperwork was in order. The solicitor is known as a bit of a bully and has been harassing my brother and wife with multiple phone calls daily.
Any ideas who is accountable here?
Thanks in advance and apologies for the length of the post.
