The conventional set of information given to a purchaser’s solicitor (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) contains a standard question of the seller to determine if the premises has ever been flooded. In the event that flooding has previously occurred which is not notified by the vendor, then a buyer may bring a claim for damages stemming from an inaccurate answer. The buyer’s conveyancers will also order an enviro report. This will indicate if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, further investigations will need to be conducted.
