You are going to sell or rent a property, do you know that, in certain areas, you are obliged to provide a risk statement summarizing the natural and/or technological risks to which the house or the land is exposed. The law of 30 July 2003 introduced an obligation to inform buyers and tenants (IAL) of immovable property about certain major risks. This approach is now simplified, Service-Public.fr tells you everything!
A risk statement, what is it?
This is mandatory information that enables the future buyer or tenant of a property to be informed, in full transparency, of the risks or nuisances to which this property is exposed. It can thus make an informed decision to purchase or lease. This information also allows the new owner or tenant to be better prepared and to know how to act in case of a risk and to take measures to reduce the vulnerability of his property, for example by carrying out work.
FYI
This obligation applies to natural, technological or mining risks, pollution and noise pollution (airports).
How is this done?
This approach is now simplified by making available a digital tool, available on the website Georists.
To establish your regulated risk status, click the downloadable form :
locate the property by entering the address or parcel number;
the result of your search is displayed and you get a balance sheet of the main risks that may affect this property. From this page, you can modify your search, perform a new search or share the result;
then click the green tab at the bottom of the page
Complete the Risk Report
then
Download the Risk Report
, the tool provides you with a document entitled
Risk Status
which you can download in pdf format.
At the end of the process, you will be told whether the property is covered by a risk plan and therefore by the obligation for its owner to have to fill in a statement.
Please note
However, it is up to you to check the information provided and complete it if necessary. The digital tool also provides access to additional information on risks not covered by the ILA to which the plot is exposed: clay soil, soil pollution, flooding, etc.
