David Will Property Consultant

The new Government is changing many things, particularly planning rules. They are committed to getting 1,500,000 new homes and I am particularly interested in hearing from anyone who may have suitable sites. The rules have already been changed as far as permitted development is concerned for all sorts of commercial buildings, shops and offices to dwellings and particularly agricultural to residential. The rules on the removal of agricultural occupancy conditions on dwellings has also changed.

I am always pleased to talk on a no obligation basis. Call or email me.

Meg and I are thinking of Stuart Will and hope all goes well when he has surgery tomorrow.

So pleased to report that David Will is back in the office.

We offer advice with boundary disputes. We offer valuations for the open market, probate and insurance purposes. We also offer Homebuyer Surveys for those wishing to purchase a new home - this is highly recommended whether it is a new home or old, and we offer very competitive rates. Call or email us for a chat and we'd be happy to accommodate you if we can.

Switching from oil fired boiler to heat pump may sound like a good idea but if you have a radiator system it is likely to mean a change of radiators, heat pumps work well with under floor heating and good insulation but with older systems larger radiators may be required.

In the last few days I have spoken to a number of concerned householders about RAP concrete which is a type of bubbly, porous concrete, weaker than traditional concrete and prone to sudden collapse. It was widely used from the 1950s to the mid 1990s in schools and other public buildings. Unfortunately not only in public buildings, it was also used extensively in local authority housing, as well as some private houses. It is relatively easy to identify if one knows what one is looking for. Last night I was asked to consider a semi detached former local authority house built around 1950 with a flat roof rear extension. From the description it appears likely that the flat roof was constructed in RAP concrete, the useful life of RAP concrete is around 30 years and it is likely this roof is deteriorating. Another problem was that asbestos fibers were added and other poor quality materials.

Hhappy birthday Stewart Wiilliam Bunting

Council Tax Valuations are based on the value of properties that aren't used for business purposes. The value was based on the price the property would have sold for on the open market on 1 April 1991 in England. Why is your Council Tax band different to your neighbours? The flawed old valuation system still dictates much of England’s banding which means that identical properties of the same size, in the same postcode can have different bands. When you challenge your band, you’ll need to give a reason for your challenge and provide supporting evidence. If you are the owner of a holiday letting or second home you may find that your Council Tax payments will increase in April 2023 and so it is important that your Council Tax band is correct, if you need help message me.

We will not be sending out Christmas cards this year but instead donating to Circus Starr, a local charity which provides vulnerable and disabled children the chance to attend a show. We donate yearly now because it's a great charity to support I'm sure you'd agree.

We have always maintained a very affordable service, compared to the major companies we are, in a lot of cases, at least a third cheaper. With only David we are also able to offer a one to one with clients, a friendly service which you don't always get elsewhere. We have clients who have been with us many years and you don't get that with bad service.

Whilst it would be lovely to offer our services for free, we are a business and have overheads like every other company. We do offer a non-obligatory chat first hand where if we can help we explain the process and costs before we proceed. Give us a call for a chat and see what we can do to help.

With the uncertainty of mortgages and possible increasing rates on the horizon, house prices rocketing and every day cost of living going through the roof maybe now would be a good time to look at your current home and the prospect of expanding it. An extra bedroom, more room for the kitchen, an added living room or hobby room or maybe a large extension is what you have in mind?

Give us a no-obligation call and see if this is something which could be done. Obviously planning rules differ depending on the area in which you live or the amount of room you have (for example) but a chat with David could help you decide the next move. We always strive to help.

We are seeing an increase in people purchasing property not getting a survey or getting a survey through the agents they have purchased the property from.

Paying a fee for a survey, minimal compared to what you would pay for a property, which can identify problems prior to your purchase, can save thousands or could give you peace of mind that you are buying a safe place. Unfortunately, a recent survey has identified not only problems with the roof, but also damp in the external walls, windows which are in need of replacement due to age and a major problem with an internal extension. To rectify this problem will cost thousands and be very time consuming. The survey fee paid has thankfully saved our clients an awful lot of money.

Apologies for the huge delay in any messages and updates. David has been in the office predominately on his own for nearly two years due to Jules' brain surgery but thankfully this has changed with Jules' hours increasing.

We're hear to help with any planning issues, boundary disputes, Homebuyers Surveys, land issues. Call us for a non-obligatory chat.

We’ve got a new logo and information, so I will be closing this page and starting a new one within the next few days. Unfortunately I can’t edit what I need to do, so this is necessary. Thank you.
