The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for solicitors dealing with homes in Maghull. Plenty of people will buy a property in Maghull, completely expectant 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 dispose of the property. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.

Solicitors are not qualified to impart advice on flood risk, but there are a various checks that may be carried out by the buyer or on a buyer’s behalf which should figure out the risks in Maghull. The standard information supplied to a purchaser’s lawyer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) incorporates a usual question of the seller to discover whether the property has suffered from flooding. In the event that the residence has been flooded in past which is not revealed by the owner, then a buyer may issue a legal claim for losses stemming from an inaccurate answer. A purchaser’s conveyancers may also commission an enviro search. This should disclose if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, additional investigations will need to be carried out.

I am buying a new build house in Maghull with a loan from Halifax. The builders would not budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative told me not to tell my conveyancer about this side-deal as it could affect my mortgage with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
