"Change of Use from HMO to Children's Residential Home"

David Mansoor and Thomas Tinel were professional, providing advice, guidance and expertise which lead to a successful planning application for a Change of Use from HMO to Children's Residential Home.

I was provided with advice to make contact with local Councillors and to engage with the local neighbours after my application received an unanticipated high volume of objections (87 to be exact).

Overall the credibility of the proposal was recognised by the Council and the application was approved without the need for any complicated Committee Meetings or appeals, within timescales.

I would like to express my sincere thanks for this service and would highly recommend.

"great customer care"

great customer care, advice and diligence
Would definitely recommend.

"Jeremy Stein of Drawing and Planning,is Mastery at Planning"

Jeremy Stein of Drawing and Planning,is an amazing professional,who is focused on providing extra value to his clients.He has saved me from making a huge financially disastrous purchase on a 5 bedroom house in Barking, which i wanted to use as a HMO. Having spoken to many professional over the past two months for my first HMO purchase. I was assured by Barking and Dagenham HMO department, that there was nothing prohibitive to me getting a licence provided all the regulations were met. I also contacted the planning department, to confirm if it was possible to submit a planing application to convert the property from a family dwelling to a HMO, they responded, yes provided I had the owners permission.
Jeremy was the only professional that advised me, that in fact it was highly unlikely that I would get planning permission to convert the change of use to an HMO, because of the council current policies on HMO's under Article 4 Direction and explain why very clearly, I am truly grateful for Jeremy's help and advise which has saved me a small fortune. I will most certainly be seeking his services on my next HMO purchase.

"Retrospective Planning Application"

"I'm opening an business in the near …"

I'm opening an business in the near future and was coming back and forth with the council in regards to the permitted use for our business. This took just under a month and yet they still didn't give me a definitive answer (unless i paid a substantial fee). Spoke to Jeremy over at Drawing and Planning Ltd, and literally within 60 seconds he told me using their data system, what permitted use my shop was. Not only did he tell me, but he also advised me on what i can and cannot do. This advice worked greatly in my favour. I will be able to sleep better at night now, having had his expert advice.
My advice to anyone in my situation is to ring drawing and planning ltd before contacting the council, which will give you different advice with every phone call!
Very highly recommended!!
p.s. thanks Jeremy :)

"An excellent all round service"

I have been using Drawing and Planning for the last 2 years now and have been thoroughly impressed with their service. Their knowledge on the varying planning stipulations for different boroughs is second to none and they have been solely responsible for achieving two major development permissions for us.

As a property developer we needed a partner to work closely with to enable us to source the most cost effective developments. These aren't always straight forward and often needed an intelligent, outside the box, perspective to achieve the desired result. DAP's planning team have met this requirement every time.

The team of architects are all very knowledgable and extremely skilled at what they do. Their knowledge on building regs and the London Plan is excellent but their acute eye for detail is their most impressive attribute.

I have and will continue to recommend DAP to people within my network. Everyone there is extremely professional and a pleasure to work with.
