There are circumstances where you find a great property on sale which does not have planning permission for its existing use. These properties are often sold at auction and are sold at attractive prices to cash buyers.
In certain circumstances it is possible to obtain planning permission retrospectively. Once obtained, this adds immediate value to the property.
In this video Ranjan Bhattacharya takes you through the process of obtaining permission to 'regularise' the existing use of a property'

Wow another way to add value to the property, very creative! Just wondering if the rules are still the same, I have to check it. Thank you Ranjan for recommending books. Best

[@prak16]

do you will reach a point where local authority rental licences will not be granted unless properties have planning permission in place?

[@sarahb.7631]

Hi Ranjan, thanks a lot for your information. what does enforcement notice mean? Is it including the enforcement officer send a letter to apply for planning permission? We have made a garden retaining wall and filled up soil inside the retaining wall. The council enforcement office sent us a letter and requested planning permission within 2 years after the works were completed. Does it mean we can't apply for the lawful use certificate?

[@prashpatel5430]

Thanks Ranjan. A great video there. very informative. With regards to the EPC to be used as evidence, how does this help? If a property has an EPC before article 4 direction came in , how does this demonstrate that the property was used as a HMO say?

[@billmeehan6068]

Hi Ranjan, superb video, exactly the clarity I've been looking for! A quick question, for multiple occupancy properties with less than 5 people, and therefore not requiring an HMO licence (many student lets), does the 10 year or 4 year rule apply? Thanks Bill

Nice video! Quick question what about using a big outbuilding used for storage into flats and renting them out ? Is this a 4 year or 10 year rule?

[@shaonmukherjee1389]

Great video. Just a Question, if the flat that has planning permission how can it have a council tax bill? cheers Shaon

[@ranjanbhattacharya-succeed7617]

Great question. It is strange but you will be surprised how many times one department of a Council doesn't talk or check with other departments. So a council's revenues dept may insist a property have its own council tax banding without making any enquiries with planning.
