Southport is a large seaside town near Liverpool in Merseyside. It used to be part of the county of Lancashire. A man called William Sutton founded the town in 1792 when he built a bathing house and what in modern times has become the south end of Lord Street.
The town's popularity as a seaside resort was helped by the ease of access to the Leeds and Liverpool Canal and the population also grew alongside the Industrial Revolution and the Victorian Period.
Landmarks and attractions include Southport Pier – the second longest pleasure pier in the UK – the Ainsdale Sand Dunes (a national nature reserve), the largest independent flower show in the UK (Victoria Park), the Royal Birkdale Golf Club and the Southport Model Railway Village.

What are the conveyancing costs?
Southport Conveyancing Solicitor fees dramatically vary depending on whether you approach an online conveyancing solicitor, a high street conveyancer or housing solicitors introduced by your estate agent.
The actual conveyancing costs, outside of the legal work, should be fixed as they are set including:
For buyers: stamp duty, land registration, property searches, ID searches and leasehold charges (if buying a leasehold property).
For sellers: office copies, title plan and management information (if selling a leasehold property).
It is important to make sure when budgeting the costs of moving home that you factor in all of the above conveyancing costs and ensure you get a fixed fee conveyancing quote from your chosen local solicitors or licensed conveyancer.
Whether you're a cash buyer or buying with a mortgage solicitors are key to the whole process, making the right choice critically important.

Which Property Searches Do You Need?
If you're buying a property in Southport using a mortgage, when your four main searches are returned they may in turn recommend that you book further searches. These can include a specialist Flood Report for example.
With an estimated 10% of residential homes not insurable at standard rates, the flood risk report will confirm if you are in a flood risk area, what type of flood risk affects your property, past flood events and insurability for building insurance.
If flooding is flagged as an issue, you should check the seller’s property information forms as the sellers state whether the property has been affected by flooding.
