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

We recently used Smeaton Homes for our move from London to Plymouth. We found them to offer an excellent service, particularly Alex and Dan who were both super helpful. To top it off, we even got a welcome gift which was a nice gesture. We highly recommend Smeaton Homes.
Testimonial 4
I've recently been dealing with Kiera in the Sales Team when looking for a property and she has been really helpful. I am a first time buyer and I've had a lot of questions that she has been more than happy to help with and has helped me to understand the process, whilst regularly keeping in contact with me to discuss properties that may be what I'm looking for! Best agents that I have come across so far in my property search!
Testimonial 5
I have 5 properties all of which are now fully managed by Smeaton Homes. I like the way Dan Robinson manages the firm. He is always available and approachable. He is prompt at arranging tradesman to deal with any maintenance issues should they arise, and keeps me up to date with any and all developments including changes in legislation that are relevant.
Testimonial 6
Always given great advice, efficient and professional. We only use Smeaton Homes when letting our properties. Dan always makes sure we are up to date with important legislation, his rental valuations are always spot on.

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.
