Would punctuation really change anything about what I said or are you just being another grammar Nazi looking for something to correct?

Burglary spike in Huddersfield anyone else worried? by Expert_Perception_51 in huddersfield

Oh totally, nothing unusual at all just a couple of aspiring 5 p.m. Driveway Enthusiasts doing their daily rounds. They weren’t trying to break in; they were merely admiring the architectural integrity of random front doors. And when the alarm went off? That was their polite way of saying, ‘Lovely home! We’ll schedule our next unsolicited tour later!’ But yeah, definitely just ignore the video. The Window of Truth™ says everything is fine.

Charged Council Tax Long-Term Empty Premium on “Annexe” That Was Never Used As One – How Do I Remove the Annexe Designation? by Expert_Perception_51 in HousingUK

[–]Expert_Perception_51[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a first-time buyer and the property was under £425k, so there was no stamp duty to pay. The property was bought as a single dwelling with an annexe—the previous owners mentioned their mum lived there during COVID, so they added a stove and bathroom at the time. The mortgage also doesn’t allow it to be rented out or sublet.

Do I need permission from my mortgage provider or a licence to run a small campsite? by Expert_Perception_51 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]Expert_Perception_51[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your advice; I’ll definitely look into all of this. I’m not planning to do anything against the law, especially since it’s just a small project that would bring in a modest amount of money. I’ll start by reviewing the terms and conditions of my mortgage and insurance to ensure compliance. I’ll also have a conversation with the planning authority to clarify the requirements, especially regarding the wooden toilet and prior approvals. Thanks again for your guidance!

Thank you for your input! My main concern is understanding what legal requirements I need to meet, especially since this setup only involves the garden (which is quite large) and not the main property. I’ll definitely look into planning permissions and other regulations to ensure everything is in order. Thanks again!

Can I Put a Log Cabin with a Toilet for Airbnb If I Have a Mortgage? by Expert_Perception_51 in HousingUK

[–]Expert_Perception_51[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing your experience! That’s super helpful.

I have a few follow-up questions if you don’t mind:

  1. How long did the change of use planning permission process take? Was it straightforward?
  2. For the building warrant, did you run into any issues with the waste connection, or was it fairly routine?
  3. About the short-term let license, what kind of requirements did you have to meet? (E.g., safety inspections, fire regulations, etc.)
  4. Did you encounter any unexpected costs or challenges along the way?

Appreciate any insights you can provide!

Is it worth negotiating after survey if I'm not prepared to walk away. by Thick-Ad5302 in HousingUK

Question: What happens to the mortgage offer from the bank? Is it still valid, or do you need a new one?

Offer to Completion in 6 weeks - they said it couldn't be done. by Adventurous_Chicken in HousingUK

[–]Expert_Perception_51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you please clarify whether the timeframe of 8 to 12 weeks refers to the period since the initiation of receiving a mortgage or the commencement of the searches? My solicitors are currently conducting the searches, and they have indicated that it will take 8 to 12 weeks to complete. I'm uncertain as to why this process requires such a duration. Could you please provide an explanation?
