Will my lawyer be raising enquiries regarding flooding as part of the conveyancing in Fenham.

The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for solicitors conducting conveyancing in Fenham. Some people will purchase a property in Fenham, completely aware 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 get a mortgage, satisfactory insurance cover, or sell the premises. Steps can be carried out during the course of a property purchase to forewarn the purchaser.

Lawyers are not best placed to impart advice on flood risk, but there are a number of checks that may be undertaken by the purchaser or by their conveyancers which should figure out the risks in Fenham. The standard completed inquiry forms supplied to a purchaser’s solicitor (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) contains a usual question of the vendor to determine whether the property has ever been flooded. In the event that the property has been flooded in past and is not revealed by the vendor, then a buyer could commence a legal claim for losses resulting from an incorrect response. The buyer’s lawyers may also conduct an environmental report. This will reveal if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, additional inquiries should be made.

I'm purchasing a new build house in Fenham with a loan from Britannia. The developers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The sale representative advised me not disclose to my lawyer about this extras as it may put at risk my mortgage with Britannia. Is this normal?.

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.

We are midway through purchasing a house in Fenham. Conveyancing solicitor has told us the property is "Leasehold". Will this likely make a difference on the salability of the property?

Fenham conveyancing does not ordinarily involve leasehold houses. The main factor here is the remaining lease term and the ground rent. If it's 999 years with a nominal rent, it's almost the same as freehold, so it shouldn't impact the marketability significantly.

On the flip side, if it's, say, Sixty years it will have a material impact on the saleability, and probably wouldn't be mortgageable. The length of lease and ground rent will be specified in the lease which should be made available to your conveyancer.
