Will my conveyancer be raising questions about flooding as part of the conveyancing in Wickford.

Flooding is a growing risk for lawyers carrying out conveyancing in Wickford. There are those who buy a property in Wickford, completely expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical damage, if a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, suitable building insurance, or dispose of the property. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.

Conveyancers are not best placed to give advice on flood risk, but there are a number of searches that can be undertaken by the purchaser or by their solicitors which will give them a better understanding of the risks in Wickford. The conventional set of property information forms given to a buyer’s solicitor (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a standard inquiry of the seller to find out whether the property has historically flooded. In the event that flooding has previously occurred which is not disclosed by the vendor, then a buyer may bring a legal claim for losses stemming from an inaccurate answer. The buyer’s lawyers should also order an enviro report. This should disclose whether there is any known flood risk. If so, additional investigations should be initiated.
