Hi there, I am trying to sell a derelict site off my land. A couple who were interested applied to demolish the old house and rebuild a new dwelling, however
they were refused. I have been told that if I were to rebuild on the footprint of the old house with a view to rebuilding to the spec of the type of house
the council want, keeping as much to the orignal as possible with room for an extension at the back I would stand a better chance as the planning
authorities look upon this more favourably. Can you tell me if this couple were to apply how can they be sure the building is structually sound to build on
for example can a structual engineer suggest new foundations if its not safe but still building the type of house the council want??
Assuming all is in order and they go for outline pp, can I then ask for payment if this is granted???
