Will our conveyancer be raising questions regarding flooding during the conveyancing in Borehamwood.

The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for lawyers dealing with homes in Borehamwood. There are those who buy a property in Borehamwood, fully aware that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical destruction, where a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, adequate insurance cover, or dispose of the premises. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the purchaser.

Solicitors are not qualified to give advice on flood risk, however there are a number of checks that may be undertaken by the purchaser or by their solicitors which can give them a better appreciation of the risks in Borehamwood. The conventional set of completed inquiry forms sent to a purchaser’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) incorporates a usual question of the owner to find out if the premises has ever been flooded. In the event that the residence has been flooded in past and is not revealed by the owner, then a buyer could issue a compensation claim stemming from an incorrect reply. A purchaser’s lawyers should also conduct an environmental search. This will disclose if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, further inquiries should be carried out.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Borehamwood.

This was going to be dealt with as part of the conveyancing process but the mortgage company will not agree to this. Why were they approached?

Your conveyancing practitioner being on a mortgage company conveyancing panel is duty bound to inform the lender of any amendments to the purchase amount. If you did not allow your conveyancing practitioner to report the price change to your mortgage company then they would need to disinstructing themselves from acting for you and the mortgage company.
