PALI X Martello Webinar: Flood Risk in UK Property

Led by DR. Henry Crosby Ph.D (Martello CEO) and Oliver Baldock (Ashfield Solutions), and delivered in partnership with PALI, the webinar explores how flood risk has traditionally been assessed, why that approach is no longer sufficient on its own, and how modern, property-specific understanding enables better decision-making.

The session will cover the role of initial flood searches as an early screening tool, why amber and red results increasingly require context rather than simple acceptance or rejection, and how lender, insurer and buyer expectations are changing. Particular focus is given to the idea that identifying flood risk does not automatically mean a transaction cannot proceed, but rather that proportionate, informed assessment is required.

This session will demonstrate how screening and follow-on flood risk assessments work together, and how clear explanation supports conveyancers in guiding clients through risk, insurability and suitability. The webinar concludes with a walkthrough of Ashfield’s follow-on flood risk reporting and how it fits into the conveyancing process in practice.
