Practical checklist
Search the official local planning register for the postcode, street, and immediate neighbouring roads.
Check for applications involving: rear extensions, lofts, HMOs, flats, demolition, redevelopment, and mixed-use change.
Look for repeated refusals or repeated resubmissions - these can indicate local development friction or persistent demand.
Check whether the area has conservation, flood, transport, or policy constraints that might affect future change.
Do not assume current neighbouring properties or vacant plots will remain unchanged over time.
