Re: Building area
Thanks so much Pan - can I ask, can a pool house and a storage shed (block built) both with no windows, just a door, be built within 3 metres of a boundary wall?
Cheers Brian

Re: residential field ownership
Thanks Nigel
Unfortunately I don’t have copy of deeds and it isn’t advertised!
Can you tell me which has the highest build density H2 or H3 - I’m hoping it is the land I am interest in is the one with the least build density which will hopefully make it cheaper.
Cheers

residential field ownership
Is there any way of finding out if a ‘residential field’ is held by an individual, company or shared ownership? If so, can you please tell me how I find this information (preferably without contacting the land registry or letting the owners know that we are interested?
thanks for any guidance.
Brian

Bank owned property - responsibilities
Is it the banks responsibility, as the owners of a villa on a small complex, to clear the garden if it is excessively overgrown with shrubs and weeds and therefore a potential fire hazard?
Many thanks
Many thanks
