Should our solicitor be raising questions regarding flooding as part of the conveyancing in Langland.
The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for conveyancers dealing with homes in Langland. Some people will purchase a property in Langland, completely aware that at some time, it may be flooded. However, leaving to one side the physical destruction, where 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 as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.
Lawyers are not best placed to impart advice on flood risk, but there are a various searches that can be initiated by the buyer or on a buyer’s behalf which will give them a better understanding of the risks in Langland. The conventional set of property information forms sent to a purchaser’s conveyancer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) includes a standard inquiry of the seller to determine whether the premises has ever been flooded. In the event that flooding has previously occurred which is not revealed by the owner, then a purchaser could issue a claim for damages stemming from an misleading reply. A buyer’s lawyers will also commission an enviro search. This should reveal whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, more detailed inquiries will need to be initiated.

Jane (my partner) and I may need to rent out our Langland 1st floor flat for a while due to taking a sabbatical. We used a Langland conveyancing practice in 2003 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to seek any advice as to whether the lease permits subletting. How do we find out?
Even though your last Langland conveyancing lawyer is not around you can review your lease to see if it allows you to sublet the premises. The accepted inference is that if the lease is non-specific, subletting is permitted. There may be a precondition that you are obliged to seek consent via your landlord or other appropriate person prior to subletting. The net result is you not allowed to sublet in the absence of first obtaining permission. The consent should not be unreasonably turned down. If the lease prohibits you from letting out the property you should ask your landlord for their consent.
