Client

Private Client

Commentary

The property is one of 8 luxury new homes built close to both Archerfield and Renaissance golf courses. 

The property had been completed without reference to a number of pre-commencement of development planning conditions.

APT prepared a strategy document, identifying the breaches, advising the client on the appropriate method to comply or amend the conditions to ensure that the completed new home was compliant with the planning permission and would therefore display a clean title.

APT liaised closely with East Lothian Council to negotiate changes as necessary and agree mitigation where this was still required.

Outcome

The completed house now complies with all necessary planning conditions.

Impact

The homeowner has peace of mind that the new home complies with all necessary planning conditions, ensuring a clean title for any future check or house sale.
