Flood Risk
Surface Water
High
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 1st Call Sales & Lettings
Based in the centre of Southend for over 15 years 1st Call are one of the most established Estate and Letting agents in the town.

With over 100 years of joint experience our managers and directors have been at the forefront of local property and have seen every type of housing market since 1989.

Our job is simple, provide a great service and support you through a really important process.

We know how stressful moving home can be and by cutting through the old fashioned estate agent attitude and replacing it with something that everyone can relate to we are able to connect with buyers, sellers, landlords and tenants everyday and develop meaningful relationships so the process of buying or letting a home is simplified.

It’s not always straightforward but we are driven by our constant stream of 5 star reviews from satisfied customers and long term clients. We have many managed and let only landlords who have been with us since 2007 and these have been the cornerstone of our business.

We are proud winners of multiple awards from ESTAS Essex & Kent Landlord Agent of the Year, to Southend’s Best New Business.
Testimonial 1
Rob is an incredible agent with so much knowledge and support given, I could not recommend Rob and 1st call enough for the support throughout a very difficult sale process for myself. I purchased my property with Rob and 8 years later returned to sell, I will always keep Rob in mind for future purchase and or sales. If your looking for a stress free situation speak with Rob! 'Nicola'
Testimonial 2
This is the second successful house sale that 1st Call have helped us through. Rob was fantastic and went above and beyond to help us hit the deadline that we needed to hit. We are very grateful to him and all his team to get us through again. The online viewing process appeared to work really well and we were pleased with what they produced. We would highly recommend using them if you are looking to sell a house locally. 'Chrissy'
Testimonial 3
Sold a house with 1st call working closely with Rob to achieve the best outcome for both the seller and buyer. Rob is conscientious, extremely experienced, professional and down to earth, he goes above & beyond to keep things on track - this is what YOU need! The online sales production and representation was superb using the latest digital hi-res 'pin sharp' photography alongside a virtual tour & floor plan and all only taking a little over an hour! 'Lea'

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.
