Should our conveyancer be raising enquiries about flooding as part of the conveyancing in Oxshott.

Flooding is a growing risk for solicitors specialising in conveyancing in Oxshott. There are those who buy a house in Oxshott, fully expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical destruction, where a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, adequate insurance cover, or sell the premises. There are steps that can be taken during the course of a property purchase to forewarn the buyer.

Solicitors are not qualified to give advice on flood risk, but there are a number of checks that may be carried out by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which will give them a better appreciation of the risks in Oxshott. The conventional set of information given to a purchaser’s lawyer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) incorporates a usual question of the seller to determine if the property has historically flooded. In the event that the property has been flooded in past which is not disclosed by the owner, then a buyer could commence a legal claim for losses as a result of such an inaccurate reply. The purchaser’s solicitors will also commission an environmental report. This will indicate if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, additional investigations should be conducted.

I am buying my first flat in Oxshott with the aid of help to buy. The sellers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The estate agent told me not disclose to my solicitor about the side-deal as it will put at risk my mortgage with the bank. Is this normal?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a quick, chain free conveyancing. Oxshott is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can impart?

Flying freeholds in Oxshott are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Oxshott you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Oxshott may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

Taking into account that I will soon spend £400,000 on a house in Oxshott I would like to have a conversation with the lawyer regarding theconveyancing in advance of appointing the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?
