Matt Prior states: 'My neighbour moved recently. They've got a brilliant stream in the garden. I thought "if it rains, will it flood the garden?" But they're happy with it. If you know that up front you can make that decision. If it takes weeks for your conveyancer to discover that and you decide you don't fancy the property being flooded, you will potentially pull out at a later stage.'
If the prospective buyer asks the seller the question when viewing the house surely that would save time and avoid the buyers solicitors "taking weeks" asking the same question which only delays the process.

Wake up Mr Prior
