Should our lawyer be raising enquiries about flooding during the conveyancing in Burscough.
Flooding is a growing risk for lawyers carrying out conveyancing in Burscough. Plenty of people will acquire a house in Burscough, fully aware that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, leaving to one side the physical destruction, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, adequate building insurance, or dispose of the property.

Conveyancers are not best placed to give advice on flood risk, however there are a number of searches that may be initiated by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which will figure out the risks in Burscough. The standard completed inquiry forms supplied to a purchaser’s conveyancer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) contains a usual inquiry of the owner to find out whether the premises has suffered from flooding. In the event that flooding has previously occurred and is not notified by the vendor, then a buyer could issue a claim for damages resulting from an inaccurate answer. A buyer’s solicitors should also carry out an enviro search. This will higlight if there is any known flood risk. If so, more detailed inquiries will need to be made.
