Hi bought old cottage to do up and add 60 sq.mtrs extension.

Got planning permission and proceeded to do the construction.Completed and now sale agreed but only to discover I had no commencement notice submitted.I googled everything and no answers.Is there any way out of predicament. I needed cert of compliance to complete the sale.

Thanks R.

When was the extension constructed? Should it have been under 'full' BCAR?

By the way, there is no means/mechanism to submit a retrospective commencement notice!

Over the last 3 years

Is a cert of "opinion for compliance" adequate for sale of the cottage.can I get a professional to check out the house for building control regs

Not "building control regs".... You've missed the boat on that one.

But you should be able to get someone to give you an opinion on compliance with planning permission and building regulations.

I was told that I could get a "Letter of Comfort" from my Architect which is a visual inspection of the extension only.I think it's the same as" opinion on compliance".The purchaser might accept this.

Was your architect involved in the construction? Either way you should be able to obtain an opinion on compliance with planning permission with building regulations from your architect or other professional (such as engineer or building surveyor).

What you cannot do is correct or regularise the lack of a commencement notice.

Really not sure what implications that has for that sale process given that your extension is in excess of 40 m.sq. and BCAR applies? Some solicitors would overlook and others may not?

Thanks R

I wonder (tounge in cheek) if I was to apply for commencement on BCMS. as an unfinished building and and maybe minimise the lack of the "offence" They might give a cert for the remaining portion of work but not the existing work completed.

When did you get planning?

what if they inspect?

you would also be relying on a professional to lie.

Yes your correct I would not want that. I Googled" Property Health Check " company and I think they can give Opinion on Compliance cert which may suffice.And hopefully the buyers solicitor will advise the client to go with it.

Thanks for your input
