We are selling our home in Sileby and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. Any local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using a national conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Sileby. Having lived in Sileby for 5 years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to seek clarification that there is no issue.

It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)

You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
