The conventional set of property information forms supplied to a buyer’s lawyer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) contains a usual inquiry of the seller to discover whether the property has suffered from flooding. If the premises has been flooded in past which is not revealed by the seller, then a buyer could commence a claim for damages resulting from an misleading answer. A buyer’s solicitors should also order an enviro search. This should indicate whether there is any known flood risk. If so, additional investigations should be conducted.
