Update to 395 Addiscombe Road Planning Application

~ admin

An update to the planning application to build 9 four-storey flats and a GP surgery at 395 Addiscombe Road by demolition of a 2 storey building.

There were over 200 objections online and by post (the number of objections could easily have doubled this figure but not everyone got around to objecting to Croydon Council). You can view the MORA objection here.

The application will be heard by the Planning Committee in due course. However, there is a backlog of cases, only two meetings per month with meetings between 25 August and most of October cancelled or postponed. Agendas are posted online on the Wednesday in the week preceding the meeting on the Thursday. We don’t get much notice to request to attend.

I will post again when there is more information.

Thank you all for your support.

Land Registry – Protect your Land and Property from Fraud

~ admin

More than 97pc of homeowners are at risk of their properties being sold fraudulently without their knowledge.

The number of people signing up for property alerts with the Land Registry tripled between 2020 and 2021 in response to rising levels of “title fraud”, according to a Freedom of Information request by Thirdfort, a risk management website. Title fraud occurs when a criminal steals the homeowner’s identity and changes the property title into another name.

You can take steps to protect your property from being fraudulently sold or mortgaged.

Homeowners can sign up to the Land Registry title alert service, which sends email notifications as and when activity searches and applications are made using the monitored address. You can get alerts for up to 10 properties – there’s no fee.

Users do not need to own the property themselves to set up alerts. The same property can be monitored by different people.

Property Alert is a free property monitoring service for anyone who feels a registered property could be at risk from fraud.

You can sign up to get email alerts when certain activity occurs on your monitored properties, so you can take action if needed.
