Planning Application Reports

Plan search - Planning application

Plansearch offers conveyancers and property investor's valuable information on planning consent applications made in relation to sites within 250m of the intended property over the past 5 years and on future development. Plans within 500m. It also contains indicative floodplain information.

Why get a Planning application report?

• This means if only a local authority search is used, you may not be fully aware of potential construction planning applications and projects or of local authority Development Plans in the local vicinity or neighbourhood.
• The planning applications reports are very easy to understand and very concise.

The report is split into three key categories:

Planning Applications

• The proposal categorized according to the type of planning application (housing, sports, airports, warehouse etc.)
• The distance and direction the development is from your property
• The application date and reference for further information if required
• Project size

Development Plans

• Summarises the development plan showing future land use and development in the area
• A description of any nearby proposed development type (housing development, transport, commercial development, open land etc.)
• The direction and distance of any proposals
• A list of the policies and the development plan from which the information was taken is provided for each development - this means that if there are any concerns further information can be obtained very easily.

Floodplain Information

• Identifies whether the property or surrounding area is in either a natural river floodplain or a coastal floodplain
• Provides an outline of the floodplain on the floodplain map to determine, at a glance, whether a floodplain area affects the property.

Basically all of the information you need to ensure no surprises with planning applications
