The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for solicitors specialising in conveyancing in Westbourne. There are those who acquire a house in Westbourne, fully aware that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical destruction, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, adequate insurance cover, or dispose of the premises.

Lawyers are not qualified to offer advice on flood risk, however there are a numerous searches that may be initiated by the purchaser or by their solicitors which should give them a better appreciation of the risks in Westbourne. The conventional set of completed inquiry forms supplied to a buyer’s lawyer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) incorporates a usual inquiry of the vendor to discover whether the premises has suffered from flooding. If flooding has previously occurred and is not disclosed by the vendor, then a buyer may bring a compensation claim as a result of such an misleading response. A buyer’s solicitors should also carry out an enviro report. This will indicate if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, additional investigations will need to be made.
