Should our conveyancer be making enquiries regarding flooding during the conveyancing in Fenham.
Flooding is a growing risk for conveyancers conducting conveyancing in Fenham. There are those who purchase a property in Fenham, fully expectant 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 dispose of the premises. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.
Conveyancers are not best placed to impart advice on flood risk, but there are a various searches that may be initiated by the buyer or by their conveyancers which will give them a better understanding of the risks in Fenham. The conventional set of property information forms supplied to a buyer’s conveyancer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) contains a standard inquiry of the owner to discover whether the premises has historically flooded. In the event that the residence has been flooded in past which is not revealed by the seller, then a buyer could commence a compensation claim as a result of such an misleading response. A buyer’s lawyers may also conduct an environmental report. This should reveal whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, further inquiries should be carried out.

I have just appointed agents to market my 2 bed flat in Fenham.Conveyancing is yet to be initiated but I have just had a yearly service charge demand – what should I do?
The sensible thing to do is clear the service charge as normal given that all ground rent and maintenance charges should be allottedon completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially
