Will our lawyer be raising questions regarding flooding as part of the conveyancing in Whitworth.
Flooding is a growing risk for solicitors carrying out conveyancing in Whitworth. There are those who buy a property in Whitworth, fully aware that at some time, it may be flooded. However, aside from the physical destruction, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, satisfactory building insurance, or dispose of the premises. Steps can be carried out during the course of a property purchase to forewarn the buyer.
Lawyers are not best placed to offer advice on flood risk, but there are a various checks that can be undertaken by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which will figure out the risks in Whitworth. The conventional set of property information forms sent to a buyer’s lawyer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) includes a standard inquiry of the owner to discover if the premises has suffered from flooding. If the premises has been flooded in past and is not revealed by the vendor, then a purchaser may bring a claim for damages resulting from an misleading reply. The buyer’s solicitors may also conduct an environmental report. This will disclose whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, further inquiries will need to be conducted.
four months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Whitworth concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
