Nearly's permitted development

[Nearly]

This is the trouble there doesnt seem to be a standard answer, @Nearly did you have to pay a CIL (community infrastructure levy) we do which they come up with the figure at the start but its never charged if we live in it for 3 years

Nothing been mentioned in any of documents received or signed. to them.

I think its a regional thing tbh

If i remember correct your lot were the first in the country to take the option up of charging the cil ( tax because thats what it is ) perhaps all the development around Kempston and Bedford swayed there decision, How much would you be talking for yours ?

Getting near £30k I think so if we live here for 3 years it's void.

A few large developments around her are 4/5k per plot i guess this will come of the land owners payout in a round about way

As I'm not selling it....£110k if done by the end of next week. Just 6 months too long.
Didn't really have a budget. My brother's a good guy.

Different builder booked for second one, need to find another brother I didn't know I had or sell some land. ££

plumber had to re-route the pipes under the bath, so not installing bath until system has been checked for leaks.
Bath was sitting in front room for 3 months, so at least it's upstairs now.

We did ours as a self build separate to the farm, in our joint names, our contractor bought most of the materials etc and charged 5% VAT, we bought lots of stuff such as light fittings etc, (all the stuff that qualifies is listed in the guidance that goes with the form, basically everything that would require tools to remove it qualifies, even the wood burner because the chimney goes through the roof, and landscaping etc) and simply filled in the form, photocopied all the invoices, sent it in and got a full refund of all the VAT. I think they disallowed one invoice for a light fitting cos it wasn't a proper vat invoice but that wasn't worth bothering about.

Pics were 2 weeks ago, glosswork done now and just waiting for plumber - again - then carpet on stairs and upstairs, vinyl flooring in upstairs bathroom.
Best get the Nissen hut demolished over Easter.
Masks and overalls shopping tomorrow.

Thought about that but might make third one self build as hasn't as good a view.

We've got furry floors.

Can put the bath in its rightful place now.

I think it needs the vet first.

Have you tried a jab of Alamycin?
