Nicks permitted development

[Forever Fendt]

Your biggest single cost is going to be labour , do as much as you can in house .

yes we will be doing as much as possible , and have plenty of self employed tradesmen contacts without using a building company

Oxon bucks area. 10 minutes for M40 and main railway line, london is 40 minutes on either.

Rents are achievable its oppurtunity cost of the cash and potential re sale salve value if plan Q comes off!

PS sorry to hijack your thread @nick...

Youre wellcome

Well nearly a month after my last post the property has gone through and got sold today.hope the buyers will be very happy.has been a very stressful(at times) time doing the building and jumping through all the various hoops for various things.i expected to feel a load has been lifted of my shoulders but I don't.ive tolerated probably 6 months being messed about and lied to by estate agents and legal people over probably nothing.why don't people tell the truth.would I do it again,not at the moment.ive learnt a lot despite spending 30 years in the building trade.worst part is people you've known for years who take the pee and are arrogant and waste so much time.anyway it's all over and time to move on.hope you have all enjoyed reading my moans and drivel over the last 2 years and hopefully it will have helped others doing similar projects

Glad you're finally finished Nick and a big thanks from us for planting the seed regarding pd developments .
Luckily we're not selling ours so the stress levels aren'nt as bad.

 

[Nearly]

Getting there with mine too. Just 2 more to do in 2018!

Thanks for leading the way.

Is been an interesting read, I'm glad its finally all done and dusted for you.

We've nearly finished ours and hopefully moving in in the next week or so, just a few odds and ends to do for building regs.

I second that both the posts from @bobk & @Nearly say it all from me as well also the state of the building you had approved kept our spirits up after the initial refusal from our LPA well done Nick

Thanks for the updates Nick, it's been interesting.

Wishing we'd got something to convert but looks like starting from scratch for me, planning permitting...

Can you convert a shed in this way into houses in scotland?

You can but it won't end well if they notice it less than 4 years ( part q England only)
