Should our solicitor be making enquiries concerning flooding during the conveyancing in Burgess Hill.
The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for conveyancers dealing with homes in Burgess Hill. There are those who purchase a house in Burgess Hill, fully expectant that at some time, it may be flooded. However, leaving to one side the physical damage, if a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, suitable insurance cover, or sell the premises. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the purchaser.
Conveyancers are not best placed to impart advice on flood risk, however there are a number of searches that can be undertaken by the buyer or by their solicitors which will figure out the risks in Burgess Hill. The conventional set of information supplied to a purchaser’s lawyer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) contains a standard question of the vendor to determine if the property has historically flooded. In the event that the property has been flooded in past which is not disclosed by the vendor, then a buyer could commence a claim for damages stemming from an incorrect reply. A buyer’s conveyancers should also conduct an enviro search. This will higlight whether there is any known flood risk. If so, additional investigations will need to be carried out.

If copies can’t be located, your lawyer can put in place insurance or indemnities against future claims on your premises.
I'm buying my first flat in Burgess Hill with the aid of help to buy. The developers would not budge the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The property agent told me not inform my solicitor about the deal as it would affect my loan with Nottingham Building Society. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
