The standard completed inquiry forms supplied to a buyer’s solicitor (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) includes a standard inquiry of the vendor to discover whether the premises has historically flooded.

The buyer’s conveyancers will also conduct an environmental report. This will disclose whether there is any known flood risk. If so, additional inquiries will need to be carried out.
