Was hoping to exchange contracts on a new home in the next few days and reading through all the paperwork the solicitor just sent and apparently the place is a high flood risk even though it has never flooded.
There is a tiny stream about 20 m from the bottom of the garden and the entrance to the lounge from the garden is up a couple of steps. We already have building and contents insurance set up and that was no problem. I have looked again and it seems that getting insurance is no problem.
Any thoughts or advice? My heart says ignore it but my head says that we don't want to end up with a property we can't insure or ever sell.
