- A friend of mine is trying to buy a house in England. After discovering the entire electrical wiring needs replacing, just a few days short of completion they have now found out that part of the building is without permission They have asked the local Council for information about what could be done (either dismantle the addition, or pay some fine). As this is taking some time they have asked for the completion date to be postponed. Needless to say, the current owners have replied by asking for more money I am sure this is somebody trying to take advantage of an inexperienced couple. However, I wonder if according to current law it is at all possible to sell a house partly or totally lacking planning permission, and if the current owners, their agency or the buyers' agency are legally bound to communicate to the potential buyers the status of the house concerning planning permissions? |
