The standard completed inquiry forms sent to a buyer’s lawyer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) contains a standard inquiry of the vendor to determine if the property has suffered from flooding. If flooding has previously occurred and is not notified by the owner, then a purchaser could bring a legal claim for losses as a result of such an misleading reply. A purchaser’s solicitors may also order an enviro report. This should higlight if there is any known flood risk. If so, further inquiries will need to be initiated.

Even though your last Bowes Park conveyancing lawyer is not available you can review your lease to check if it allows you to sublet the premises. The accepted inference is that if the deeds are silent, subletting is permitted.

Such consent should not be unreasonably withheld. If your lease does not allow you to sublet you should ask your landlord for their consent.
