Should our lawyer be making enquiries regarding flooding during the conveyancing in Bilston.
Flooding is a growing risk for solicitors carrying out conveyancing in Bilston. There are those who buy a property in Bilston, completely aware that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical damage, where a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, satisfactory building insurance, or sell the premises. Steps can be carried out during the course of a property purchase to forewarn the buyer.
Solicitors are not best placed to give advice on flood risk, however there are a number of searches that may be carried out by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which can figure out the risks in Bilston. The standard completed inquiry forms supplied to a buyer’s solicitor (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) contains a usual inquiry of the vendor to find out whether the premises has historically flooded. In the event that the residence has been flooded in past and is not revealed by the vendor, then a buyer could issue a compensation claim as a result of such an incorrect reply. The buyer’s solicitors may also order an enviro report. This will disclose if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, additional inquiries will need to be made.

I've recently bought a leasehold flat in Bilston. Do I have any liability for service charges relating to a period prior to completion of my purchase?
In a situation where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous lessee and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. Strange as it may seem, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. It is an essential part of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to be sure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.
If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).
