If you own a property or a bought piece of land for development purposes, the top question on your mind is likely to revolve around planning consent. In the UK, you must seek planning permission to carry out large-scale alterations on a property, or to build premises on a plot of land. Perhaps your property or land came with planning permission when you bought it, or perhaps you are just starting the planning process; whatever your situation, it is important to be aware of how long each permission will last.
