Developer Pack
Price: £69.95Sample
If you are planning to build on land, whether it be a small extension or a whole new dwelling you will of course need to think about getting planning consent and building regulations approval but even before that you need to know if what you are planning is ok according to the title deeds. Do you need consent under any covenants? Will you be blocking any third party rights? Do you know where the legal boundaries are so that.you don't end up building in someone else's land? Falling foul of any of these issues could have serious consequences, including an award of financial compensation against you or even an injunction ordering you to tear down what you have built. It could also cause you difficulties if you ever try to sell the property.
Our developer pack will provide you with all the information held by the land registry about any rights or covenants that affect the land as well as an assessment about how they might impact development on the land.
