Flood Risk
Surface Water
Very low
Unlike flooding from rivers, surface water flooding can happen many miles from a river, often in places that people wouldn’t expect because it’s a long way from a river or stream – it happens simply because there is nowhere else for the rainwater to go. Risk ratings are measured as:
High Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 30 (3.3%) in any one year.
Medium Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 100 (1.0%) in any one year.
Low Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.
Very Low Risk - an area in which the risk is below 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.

Testimonial 1
Excellent Experience with the entire team of Davis Tate. They are so professional and supportive it was a seamless experience. We are based overseas and were worried about the whole process but the team at Davis Tate made it look so easy and effortless. We are happy to have chosen Davis Tate as our agents. A special mention of few of the members: Siobhan and Michael, who have been absolutely wonderful
Testimonial 2
We were selling our house after 35 years and felt rather anxious about moving. Charlie and his team provided the reassurance we needed at this stressful time and guided us through the process. They offered good advice and were very good on communication, both with ourselves and all the others involved. We were particularly impressed with Charlie and the way he runs the team and wouldn't hesitate to use them again. We wholeheartedly recommend Davis Tate.
Testimonial 3
We sold through different agents, but bought through Reading Davis Tate. Charlie H was brilliant, both our estate agents and our lawyers were not good but Charlie's perseverance kept everything going. Charlie kept up momentum, all whilst being friendly, approachable and helpful. Davis Tate seemed so much better than the (cheap) estate agent that we used to sell, I am not sure what would have happened had Charlie not been so good!

Council Tax pays for multiple services in the property's local authority with only part of it going to the council itself. Residences within a Parish or Town Council area have an additional charge to fund the body. Each parish/town council has a different budget and imposes different fees. Not all councils have parishes/town councils and this varies across the country.

In instances where parish/town councils do affect the council tax value and we do not have the exact figure, we present council tax data with the below highlights. Take care to confirm which is being presented by the dashboard as this will need to be made clear to your clients:

avg - When we indicate the Council Tax price is 'avg', it means we have not been able to obtain an exact figure, so this number represents the mean value of Council Tax across the council for that property band. The exact figure will be slightly higher or lower because each parish/town council is priced differently.

min - When we indicate the Council Tax is a 'min', it represents the known amount that the council sets for itself, but excludes the parish/town council cost which we have not been able to obtain. The additional cost will need to be considered as it will be greater than the indicated price.
