Will our solicitor be making enquiries concerning flooding during the conveyancing in Brent Park.
The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for lawyers dealing with homes in Brent Park. There are those who acquire a property in Brent Park, fully expectant that at some time, it may be flooded. However, leaving to one side the physical damage, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, suitable building insurance, or dispose of the property. Steps can be carried out during the course of a property purchase to forewarn the buyer.
Lawyers are not qualified to offer advice on flood risk, however there are a number of checks that can be initiated by the purchaser or by their lawyers which will give them a better appreciation of the risks in Brent Park. The standard property information forms given to a purchaser’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) contains a usual inquiry of the owner to determine if the premises has suffered from flooding. In the event that flooding has previously occurred which is not revealed by the seller, then a purchaser may commence a compensation claim as a result of such an misleading answer. A purchaser’s solicitors will also commission an environmental search. This should disclose whether there is any known flood risk. If so, more detailed inquiries will need to be carried out.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Brent Park is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Even where you use a solicitor outside Brent Park you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Brent Park may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
