Richard didn't have time to answer all the questions during the one hour course (which is available to download free from our website www.lawsureinsurance.co.uk/conferences), so we turned them into a podcast!

Want to know the answers to questions such as:

  • What enquiries should we be raising in relation to Spray Insulation on both open and closed cell ?
  • Is an Fire Risk Assessment  required for a tyneside flat?
  • Is the old response 'not to the best of our client's knowledge and belief' any less of a representation that you've taken reasonable steps to enquire?
  • Is "not known" interpreted in the same way as "not so far as the seller is aware"?
  • With documents for Building Regs and planning permissions, how many years back do we need to provide them for?
  • And many, many more....!

In this 15 minute episode, find the answers to the above questions and more!
