With an estimated 1 in 5 properties in the UK at high risk of flooding, it is increasingly important for home buyers to carry out searches which expose any risks in respect to flooding, yet results from a recent Searches UK survey reveal that only 60% of Solicitors or Conveyancers are advising their clients to carry out a flood search.
Flood reports, offered by Searches UK, are an affordable and quick way to keep your clients informed about any risk of flood to the property they are looking to purchase. Results are returned within 48 hours and can be ordered as an isolated product or as part of a search pack.
The reports look at the risk of surface water, groundwater and tidal flooding and can help ensure insurance can be obtained if a risk is identified. To find out more about these searches please email info@searchesuk.co.uk for more details or visit www.searchesuk.co.uk to view product cards and sample searches from GroundSure, Landmark and Future Climate Info.

With a range of reports to choose from, Solicitors and Conveyancers are free to decide which one best suits their client’s needs.”
