Planning application question

[pattieG]

Hello.

My house is shared ownership. Will an email to them informing them that I am applying for planning permission to extend the house count as notifying all other owners on the planning application?

Thanks in advance.

Your email will likely get a response that you need to pay them ££ for their formal approval

That will not suffice, there is a downloadable notice on the portal that you complete and send them with a covering letter.

You are not asking them for anything at this time so there will / should be no fee.

Just a thought. Say you own 50% and the other party own 50%.

I'd be concerned that me spending £20k on an extension would end up me paying another £10k in the future to own 100% and in the short term paying not only extra mortgage to fund the extension but also extra rent.

Tell me I have got this wrong.

Yes, that's the one.

To be fair, it's more or less academic: Planning never check on ownership, and you're not allowed to implement a Planning Approval unless you have the permission of all owners, anyway.

Technically, the approval would be invalid unless you've served the Notice No. 1, but it would only become a problem if somebody grassed you up to Planning.

Excellent.

I'll email that filled out to the housing association.

Sorry didn't see this earlier.

I also had this fear but it turns out to be ok. When I but the other 50% the added value from the works I do will be deducted from the sale price. Example: house is 200k. I add 100k of value so total value is now 300k. I decide to buy the other half l. I only pay 100k for it.

Unless I sell before buying the other 50%. Then the increased equity is split between me and the housing association.
