Hi,
Myself and My wife have found our dream home and have had a bid accepted but the auctioneer has told us today that the garage at the rear of the house has no planning permission.
It is fairly big and is to the rear and side of the house so would definitely need permission. I've been told though that a mortgage lender wont issue a cheque until retrospective planning permission is granted. Is there a way around this without applying for retention which will take up tp 8 weeks. We are in temporary dwellings since selling our own house three weeks ago and dont want to wait that long.
I dont really care if it has to be knocked down in the future. This house is in the middle of nowhere so the chances of an objection are really minimal.
Thanks
Brian
