SECURING PLANNING PERMISSION TO YOUR HOME AS AN INVESTMENT

Any Planning Permission that is granted, such as an Extension or Loft Conversion on your property, increases the Sale Value instantly, even without the need to build

 Discount Plans has created a brief explanation of why this is the case. From past experience, we have seen the facts about numerous clients who have done just that.

What are the BENEFITS of OBTAINING PLANNING PERMISSION without the intention of Building?

Many of our clients come to us seeking professional assistance in preparing the necessary drawings for approval by the local authority. These drawings are essential when adding to a seller’s pack, particularly for those looking to sell their property. Having approved plans as part of the sale package can significantly enhance the appeal of your property to prospective buyers. This is because all the challenges and delays associated with obtaining planning permission have already been addressed, saving buyers both time and money. For sellers, this proactive step can also provide peace of mind, knowing that their property is ready to move forward with approved plans in place.

"Helping Homeowners increase the value of their property by seeking Planning Permission for the SALE, getting all the hard work out of the way for the new purchaser to benefit from."

When estate agents market a property with the clear designation of "SOLD WITH PLANNING SORT,” it stands out in a competitive marketplace. This distinction highlights the property’s potential and reassures buyers that the development possibilities have been verified and approved. Additionally, including floor plans within the sales materials allows buyers to clearly visualize the scope of development that has been granted. These approved plans remain valid for up to three years, giving buyers the flexibility to begin construction at their own pace.

Selling a property with planning permission already in place can not only expedite the sale but also increase the property’s value significantly. Studies show that properties sold with approved planning permission can fetch up to 7.5% more than their original market value. However, this increase depends on various factors, including the current value of the property and the extent of the approved development. For example, properties with permissions for major expansions, such as side or rear extensions or attic conversions, typically see a more substantial boost in value.
