The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for conveyancers dealing with homes in Skelmersdale. There are those who buy a property in Skelmersdale, completely aware that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, leaving to one side the physical damage, where a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, suitable building insurance, or sell the premises.

The conventional set of completed inquiry forms supplied to a buyer’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) incorporates a standard inquiry of the vendor to determine whether the property has historically flooded. In the event that flooding has previously occurred and is not disclosed by the vendor, then a buyer may commence a claim for damages as a result of such an inaccurate reply. The purchaser’s solicitors should also carry out an enviro search. This will indicate whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, more detailed investigations should be carried out.
