Hello All,
We have been in the process of purchasing a house for the last 3 months almost and 2 weeks ago the searches came back saying there are no planning or building regulations completion certificates for a kitchen extension and a garage conversion. The current vendor refused to get a retrospective consent and said these extensions were not carried out during his stay there in the last 10 years. The surveyor did not raise any alarm and the bank is ready to progress with the mortgage as long as there is an indemnity insurance which the seller agreed to purchase.
I am emotionally invested in the house but would you go for a house which is potentially hard to resell?
Thanks
