What sale-agreed buyers should check on the planning register before contracts are signed348 applications across the Greater Dublin councils are inside their five-week observation window today. The nine planning checks to run between sale agreed and signing — the house's own history, the neighbours' live applications, appeals, commencements, RZLT, flood and conservation flags — and which of them the €85 search will not do.
Planning searches in conveyancing — what an €85 search covers, and what it cannot seeEvery Irish house purchase includes a planning search against the council's register. What the search returns, what the certificate of compliance adds, and the things that are moving on the day of closing that neither of them shows — a live appeal, an open observation window, a commencement notice last month.
