Title: I will be on the property ladder soon!
Post by: muddyjames on March 10, 2006, 08:13:25
On Monday I have had an offer accepted on a house :D

It is in a small village on the A361 just north of Banbury. Its a show house inside ie brand new carpets, laminate posh floor (the expensive wide stuff) 2 bed both double bedrooms with built in wardrobes, tiny kitchen but hey, south facing lounge and garden, space for my 2 cars and enough space in the garden to make a fence pannel a gate and put my caravan in there, lovely little close, end of terrace, owners I am buying of is moving 2 houses down because they want a garage and dont want to move out the close because they love it so much, and I am 15 mins away from a really good Landy mechanic in Banbury! What more can I ask for? Photos to come soon.

Erm.... I could be wrong but you might want to check about putting up fences etc. I know sometimes when they are built as open plan they can put it in the deeds that any fencing or things like that can need planning permission. Also when we bought our old house in 1990 it was in the contract that we were not allowed to keep a caravan on the property but like I said I am not 100% sure about these things just thought a warning might be good.
Feel free to correct me anyone in the know!!! :lol:

Yes, original build planning consent can have restrictions applied that live with the property forever. But I would hope the solicitor will have pointed this out if you advised you wanted to keep a van there.

But, congratulations MuddyJames! Now you will have no money left after paying the mortgage to play 4x4's though  :lol:

Well I have done a little bit of research by driving around the estate and there are quiet a few people with caravans on their drive and mine will be in the garden so less obviouse hopefully. Wouldnt feel happy with it on a drive with light fingers n all.

As regards to the fence I didnt explain my self properly. The fence is already there I just want to put a hinge on 1 side and a little caster the other end so it makes it into a gate if you get my drift?

The owners said originaly between the houses there was a tiny 1 ft fence but they have now put up a 6ft high fence. I am sure a survey would spot that wouldnt it if it wasnt allowed?

I'm not in the know, but I do know that (cheaper than asking your solicitor) you can get a copy of the land registry file from  here  (http://www.landregisteronline.gov.uk/lro/servlet/TitleSearchServlet) that will give you a whole host of info about ANY property, but obviously I'm aiming here at your own. If there are restrictive covenants that stop you doing 'stuff' they should be in this report (section 'C' I think) :wink:

They are £2 each I think.

Ive paid me £2 and I am printing them off now! Cheers for that. I will have a read through of them!

Looking at the land registery thing on the plan it shows another building at the end of the garden which is attatched to the next door neighbours garage. Now there is a double drive way ie 1 car in front of the other and the 2nd space is where the garage looks like it should be.

Where would I stand on that one? Should the builders have built it? Would it be easy to get planning permission to have one built in the future? Have I found a neash in the house that could make me money?

Also I cant find anything that says anything about caravans or sign written vans. If anyone wants to read through I am sure that is allowed or is it not wise too let people read them? If they are on the internet for anyone to down load I guess it must be ok? some of the wording just baffles me too!!! but hey. It is actualy on the solicitors list of jobs she was gonna do and for double the money as well so I need to stop her from doing it.

congratulations to you too.

I would never have managed my move without my dad working his arse off all his life and him then sadly passing away and leaving me n my bro enough dosh to get us going. The only way to get on the ladder is with 2 people or half of a house paid off by a inheritance.

Good luck with everything. Scary isnt it!!!

House wont have been completed until about middle of may but yeah I wil def be going there. If I brake down I could probably push it home from there. WICKED.

Anyone know of anyone possibly looking for a room to rent? I will have one free once I am settled in Iwill want to rent out. Also anyone know of any jobs going? I dont think I can get a transfer at the mo with Royal Mail. Need to talk to manager see if he can do some inside investigating on some jobs.
