If flooding has previously occurred which is not notified by the vendor, then a buyer may bring a compensation claim stemming from an inaccurate response. A buyer’s solicitors will also carry out an enviro search. This should reveal whether there is any known flood risk. If so, additional investigations should be initiated.
