Will our lawyer be raising enquiries regarding flooding as part of the conveyancing in Upminster.
Flooding is a growing risk for conveyancers carrying out conveyancing in Upminster. There are those who purchase a house in Upminster, completely aware that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, leaving to one side the physical destruction, where a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, satisfactory insurance cover, or dispose of the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the purchaser.
Solicitors are not best placed to give advice on flood risk, however there are a number of checks that may be undertaken by the buyer or on a buyer’s behalf which will give them a better appreciation of the risks in Upminster. The standard property information forms supplied to a buyer’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a standard question of the vendor to find out if the premises has ever been flooded. If flooding has previously occurred and is not notified by the owner, then a purchaser could bring a claim for damages resulting from an inaccurate response. The purchaser’s solicitors should also carry out an enviro report. This should disclose whether there is any known flood risk. If so, further investigations should be initiated.
