Dwellings in some areas to Hackney's east, such as in Hackney Wick and Hackney Marsh, if they are built very close to the River Lea or the River Lea navigation, such as in Osborne Road and Lindisfarne Way, are subject to flood warnings and alerts from time to time. If you are concerned that a property you are looking to buy is in a flood risk area, you should consider getting a flood risk report (click for more details). |
Overhead lines and phone masts can be contentious and may have a visual impact on the surrounding area. A recent Environmental Search stated that a property in Mildmay Park, London, London, N1 4PE, was within 250m of overhead power lines or mobile phone masts. |
A recent Environmental Search for a property in Mildmay Park, London, London, N1 4PE, stated that the dwelling was within 50m of an area with potential for natural ground instability. The British Geological Survey has assessed the area of search as having moderate potential for natural ground instability. This does not necessarily mean there is cause for concern in terms of the property's stability. Active subsidence will be dependent on local conditions, such as the proximity of trees or areas where trees have been removed, which require an inspection of the site to identify the nature of the ground on which the property is built. A house buyers survey is advised to look for signs of property damage that may indicate poor natural ground conditions. |
Greater London is an area which contains London, the capital of the United Kingdom (which itself centres on the Cities of London and Westminster) and a number of surrounding boroughs which are administered as London boroughs and which are the overall executive responsibility of the Mayor of London. It contains a large number of constituencies, each represented by an MP and it should be noted that these are not the same as nor even always continguous with the borders of the boroughs.Many parts of Greater London were originally administered by the counties which surround London and these counties are often called the home counties. Enfield, for example, used to be classed as being part of Middlesex, but is now near the northern border of Greater London. Greater London's borders often coincide with a zone of 'green belt': areas where it has been decided that open spaces, parks, forests and wildlife reserves should act as a buffer against urban sprawl. London has numerous landmarks, anything from Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament to Karl Marx's grave in Highgate Cemetery.
Greater London contains more than 9 million inhabitants, a number growing daily, and as this is approximately 1/7 of the population of the UK, it can be seen that Greater Londoners have a large influence on the rest of the country politically and this is enhanced by the concentration of skilled workers gravitating towards the capital.

A RICS Home Buyers Survey involves an examination of the structure of the inside and the outside of a property aimed at pinpointing issues such as subsidence, damp, cracks, infestation and damage. The survey is non-intrusive.
If you are thinking of buying a property in Hackney, it is highly advisable to book one, whether a Building Survey (which used to be known as a Full Structural Survey) or a HomeBuyers Report,.

What should you do when the surveyor finds a defect that affects the property price?
This is a very difficult situation to be in. You have agreed a price with the seller not knowing of this issue and now have the issue of needing to revisit your offer.
The best advice is to inform the seller/estate agent of the issue you have uncovered, provide the specific information from the report from your Building Surveyor (not the full report) and then discuss a solution that accounts for the repair works.
Does your property look like this?
A thatch roof is a very particular style for a property and it is important you get a RICS surveyor who has previous experience of surveying thatched roof properties in Hackney. A Level 3: Building Survey is better suited for this style of property due to the age and style of the property and the surveyor will need to pay special attention to inspecting the current condition of the roof as thatch does deteriorate over time.
Does your property look different to this? Then read our guide on which survey suits your property type.
