Hi, i was after some advice as what to do.
i recently bought a property at auction, didn't think of much of it at the time!
But the back of the property seem to have been extended with a additional bedroom. but the hall way leading up to it looks unfinished. the walls and roof seems to be just made of metal sheeting.floor is concrete, thought it would be a good reno.
But how do i find out if what they have done is approved by council?
Do I just call up the council & ask?
how do i find out what's original to the property and what's been extended?
if the works are not approved, can i get them pay the fees to submit a approval or anything?
As the auction contract is uncoditional would I have any legal ground to get them to do anything if the works are not approved?
thank!
Any advice would be much appreciated, my 1st Ip & reno. hence not much experience.
