Im trying to buy a house with an extension that wasnt signed off.
The extension was under permitted development. Apparently it was inspected at verious stages of the build but wasnt signed off when completed.
Our solicitor (i use this term lighlty) is saying a normal indemnity policy isnt sufficient. Because the process for building control was started but not finished (basically saying the council are aware so it would invalidate the policy)
From what ive read online the seems a fairly normal thing and and indemnity policy is the easiest and most straightforward way do deal with this.
Any opinions on this ?
