Why do I need the Regulated Drainage and Water Search?
The Regulated Drainage and Water Search is one of the four main searches that lenders require from those who are buying a home with a mortgage.
Search companies compile data from the relevant water authority and the report is in the form of a number of essential questions with a summary answer to each, then later sections analyse in much greater depth each question asked.
You will find out essential facts about your water supply and drainage but you will also find out if there are any risks from sewers overflowing or bad water quality. If any risks are flagged up, your ability to buy insurance against flooding might be affected and you may well be advised to seek further information.
