Paul finished building his house in January 2009. He began building it himself in August 2006 bit by bit. He moved in January 2010. in December 2012, He wants to sell the property to Fred for £20,000 even though its worth £86,000. The searches show that no Planning Permission was sought. What would your advice be to Fred?

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • Its fine. Don't worry. The property is cheap, you can't lose at that price. Its a steal! If you turn it down you're an idiot.

  • There is an enforcement period of 10 years, which means the council could ask Fred to demolish the property and he would be left with just the land. Therefore, he should consider whether he is prepared to take this risk.

  • The enforcement period of 4 years started when there was a breach in 2006 and therefore the enforcement period lapsed in 2010. Fred is good to go.

  • The four year enforcement period is not up until January 2014. Therefore, he should hold off for a short time until that time. That way, he can purchase the property free of Planning Permission enforcement. Although there may be issues with Building Regulation control, which building control is unlimited.

  • Ask Paul for a regularisation certificate for the lack of planning permission.

  • Planning is essentially an easement and you can just get around buildings regs and planning by registering the property.
