Flooding is a growing risk for conveyancers specialising in conveyancing in Little Burstead. Some people will buy a house in Little Burstead, completely aware that at some time, it may be flooded. However, leaving to one side the physical destruction, where a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, satisfactory building insurance, or dispose of the premises.

Conveyancers are not qualified to impart advice on flood risk, however there are a number of checks that may be initiated by the buyer or by their lawyers which should give them a better appreciation of the risks in Little Burstead. The conventional set of completed inquiry forms given to a buyer’s solicitor (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) incorporates a standard question of the vendor to find out whether the property has historically flooded. In the event that the residence has been flooded in past which is not disclosed by the seller, then a purchaser could issue a compensation claim stemming from an misleading response. The buyer’s solicitors should also commission an enviro report. This will higlight if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, more detailed investigations will need to be initiated.

You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
