Will my solicitor be raising enquiries regarding flooding as part of the conveyancing in Admaston.
The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for solicitors conducting conveyancing in Admaston. There are those who buy a house in Admaston, fully aware that at some time, it may be flooded. However, aside from the physical damage, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, satisfactory building insurance, or dispose of the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the purchaser.
Solicitors are not best placed to offer advice on flood risk, however there are a various searches that may be undertaken by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which will give them a better appreciation of the risks in Admaston. The standard information supplied to a buyer’s solicitor (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) contains a usual inquiry of the owner to determine whether the property has ever been flooded. In the event that the premises has been flooded in past which is not disclosed by the owner, then a purchaser could commence a claim for damages as a result of such an inaccurate answer. A buyer’s conveyancers will also order an enviro search. This will reveal whether there is any known flood risk. If so, additional inquiries will need to be initiated.
How does conveyancing in Admaston differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Admaston approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because developers in Admaston usually purchase the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Admaston or who has acted in the same development.
