Flood Risk
Rivers & Seas
Very low
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.

About Emma Wallington YOPA
A full service
Everything traditional estate agents do, we do too. We’re also here on evenings and at weekends, when you need us most.

Fair fixed fees
Only pay one fee, which is fixed from the beginning. There’s no commission, and we’ll discuss your payment options with you upfront.

Pay when sold
Or, for extra peace of mind, only pay when your home is sold. Speak to your agent for a price.
Emma Wallington, Area Sales Manager
I have worked within the industry for just under 19 years and within this time have undertaken almost every role that you can within estate agency. At the heart of my business mindset is customer service and ensuring that my clients and buyers receive the best possible experience throughout their move.

Having always worked full time I took the opportunity to become self-employed in 2021 after 18 years of High Street agency to allow a more flexible work / home life balance to ensure that I can also focus on my other passion, my family I have two children who are my world and have lived in Collier Row with my partner since moving from the family home back in 2005.

The ability to service clients within my own community is a fantastic opportunity for me, having lived in Romford for over 10 years both my children attend the local schools and I love the fact that I can visit both the hassle and bustle of Romfords Town centre or a bespoke cafe within minutes from my home.

Testimonial 1
Emma and her Team at Yopa Estate Agents demonstrate high level of professionalism in their service - very efficient and diligent. Also their online service on Yopahub is very user friendly. Will highly recommend.
Testimonial 2
I just met with Emma Wallington and she was absolutely brilliant!! Exactly what I was hoping for in an agent!
The day I booked the valuation she called me to confirm property details and have a chat about my needs. Day of valuation she turned up on time, showed me comparables as to why she came to the price for my valuation. Discussed the different options available to pay with YOPA. She showed a genuine enthusiastic interest when looking around my house.
Testimonial 3
Emma my Yopa agent has been marvellous, from first visit for valuation, through to the sale of my home, giving honest and clear guidance throughout.
I choose the middle range package which meant I didn’t have to do anything other than arrange three two hour time slots that suited me. Emma did all the arranging and viewings for me, so glad I choose that package as with in 8 days I had 25 viewings and serious offers! Emma is always contactable and helpful!

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.
