Plenty of people will purchase a property in Southbourne, completely expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical damage, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, adequate insurance cover, or dispose of the property. Steps can be carried out during the course of a house purchase to forewarn the buyer.
Solicitors are not best placed to impart advice on flood risk, but there are a number of checks that may be initiated by the buyer or on a buyer’s behalf which should give them a better appreciation of the risks in Southbourne. The standard property information forms sent to a buyer’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) contains a usual question of the seller to find out whether the premises has historically flooded. In the event that the residence has been flooded in past which is not disclosed by the owner, then a buyer may commence a claim for damages stemming from an incorrect answer. The buyer’s lawyers should also order an enviro report. This will disclose whether there is any known flood risk. If so, additional inquiries will need to be made.
