Every area has its own quirks. These are the ones we look out for here.
Coastal homes
For homes near the coast or the river, we look closely at the environmental and flood risk results and explain them in plain English.
Conservation areas
Tynemouth and parts of the coast are conservation areas, which can limit changes such as windows and extensions. We flag this before you commit.
Tyneside flats
Older streets in North Shields and Wallsend often have Tyneside flats. We check the lease and title arrangements early.
