If you are going to self-build your home then it is extremely important that you understand everything about planning permission and how you should go about getting it. There are plenty of things to think of when you self-build your home, but this is the most important of all. If you find a plot for sale which you like but which has no planning permission then it is not a house building plot and you should look for expert advice before you decide to buy it. It is better not to buy such a plot than to have spent money on one which you cannot use for building your home nor able to sell it unless you find another gullible fool.

Most building plots Kent are sold with Outline Planning Permission; i.e. the Local Planning Authority has provided a license to have a house built there. You must submit an application for detailed planning permission within a certain time period; normally three years. Detailed planning permission should cover all details of your house; the layout and specification of external materials that you will use. This should be done most perfectly as you might run into problems after you start construction when you might find that you don't have permission for something you are doing, thereby delaying the entire construction process.
