The range of Earley conveyancing searches should be dictated entirely on the premises, the location, the likelihood of any of these risks, your familiarity of the region and risks, your overall attitude to risk.

Will our lawyer be asking questions regarding flooding during the conveyancing in Earley.

Flooding is a growing risk for lawyers dealing with homes in Earley. Plenty of people will buy a property in Earley, fully expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical destruction, if a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, suitable insurance cover, or dispose of the premises. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.

Conveyancers are not best placed to offer advice on flood risk, but there are a number of searches that can be undertaken by the buyer or on a buyer’s behalf which should figure out the risks in Earley. The standard completed inquiry forms given to a purchaser’s lawyer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) contains a standard question of the owner to discover if the premises has suffered from flooding. If the premises has been flooded in past which is not disclosed by the vendor, then a buyer may commence a legal claim for losses resulting from an inaccurate response. A purchaser’s solicitors should also carry out an enviro report. This will indicate if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, further inquiries will need to be carried out.
