Should my conveyancer be asking questions concerning flooding as part of the conveyancing in Ditchling.

Flooding is a growing risk for conveyancers dealing with homes in Ditchling. Plenty of people will acquire a property in Ditchling, fully aware that at some time, it may be flooded. However, aside from the physical damage, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, suitable insurance cover, or sell the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.

Solicitors are not qualified to give advice on flood risk, but there are a number of checks that can be initiated by the buyer or on a buyer’s behalf which should figure out the risks in Ditchling. The conventional set of property information forms sent to a buyer’s solicitor (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) contains a usual inquiry of the seller to determine whether the premises has suffered from flooding. In the event that the residence has been flooded in past which is not notified by the vendor, then a buyer could issue a compensation claim resulting from an misleading reply. The purchaser’s solicitors will also commission an environmental report. This will reveal whether there is any known flood risk. If so, additional investigations should be carried out.
