Creating a driveway . Board approval?

Q:I wonder if anyone could help me here. I live on a main road in town and it has very little on street parking. There are double yellow lines on the road at my side of the street and I have been wondering about making a driveway by knocking down the front wall of my garden and doing the usual work to make it useable etc.

  • Right time to buy ? First time buyer in Bath

    Q:Hi All

    I am hopefully moving down to Bath next month and my boyfriend and I are very keen to buy. However, both of us know very little about the property market- would it be a good time to buy down in Bath? We are really keen to find somewhere that needs a bit of work and 'do it up'.
    He is a carpenter and I'm a scientist so neither of us earn big money- we'd be looking around the £200,000 mark for a two bed place.
    Any advice would be most appreciated!!

    Q:It would appear that repossesions are a good way to get a property under current market value however how would you find out about them ?

    Is this information available to all of us or is it just for a secret sect :confused:

    Is the purchase any different because it's a repo ie are lenders a bit more wary ?

    TIA,
    Mike.

  • Any way to get deposit / fee back

    Q:Hello

    I have paid an agency fee to hold a flat (175 quid) and cicumstances now dictate I could really do with not going through with it.

    It has been less than 24 hours, is there any way I can get them to give me this back? Is there a cooling off period or anything…

    Even if I lost a portion of it, it would still be better than nought!
