The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for conveyancers dealing with homes in Keswick. Some people will buy a house in Keswick, fully expectant that at some time, it may be flooded. However, aside from the physical damage, where a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, satisfactory building insurance, or sell the premises. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.
Conveyancers are not qualified to impart advice on flood risk, but there are a number of checks that can be carried out by the buyer or on a buyer’s behalf which can figure out the risks in Keswick. The standard information sent to a purchaser’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) contains a usual question of the vendor to determine whether the premises has historically flooded. In the event that the premises has been flooded in past which is not revealed by the seller, then a buyer may issue a claim for damages resulting from an misleading response. A buyer’s solicitors should also carry out an environmental report. This should indicate whether there is any known flood risk. If so, further investigations should be conducted.
