I am beside myself with worry. I live in and own a 3-bed maisonette above a shop. The shop beneath me is a newsagents and the shop next door has been a post office for years. I received a letter from the council saying that the post office had applied for planning permission to turn it into a hot food takeaway. At the bottom of the letter the council said they could not take into consideration any 'material considerations' such as property value, loss of view, prvate disputes, impact of construction work or competition between firms.
Hmm not really much left out of that bunch to complain about other than people hanging around outside, the noise, and the smell. I'm concerned that these three things may not be enough?
I was unsure if I could put that it would effect the number of mortgage lenders who will lend to me in case it is classed as a material consideration? - It definitely will have a huge impact which will of course make my property virtually impossible to sell. Any advice?
