Checks we make on sites with lapsed or refused planning in Warwick
Reasons for refusal
The wording of each reason tells us what would need to change.
Policy changes
National and local policy may have moved since the last decision, for better or worse.
Appeal history
An inspector's decision carries weight in future applications.

Frequently asked in Warwickshire
My application was refused. Should I appeal or re-apply?
It depends on the reasons and time limits. Sometimes a revised application is better than an appeal. We look at the decision and say what we would do.
My permission lapsed years ago. Is it still relevant?
Yes. An old permission shows the principle was once accepted, though current policy now applies.
Can an agent introduce land in Warwick to you?
Yes. Estate agents, land agents and planning consultants can introduce sites with the owner's consent. Any fee is agreed in writing before details are shared, confirmed by the owner in writing and paid only on completion.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Warwick assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
