Im looking to buy a building.
It has planning permission from1996.
An extension was erected and planning was given for that in 2002.
As far as I can see it was not signed off(if thats the correct term) or finalised.
The extention is there none the less.
How do I check if the building is compliant or basically ok for me to buy?
If it isnt what can be done?
I undertstand the seller is in a bind and has to sell so im not sure they will have money to get anything done.
Thanks for any help / advice

Get seller to provide a certificate of compliance.
Bear in mind it will be a visual inspection so no way of knowing 100% what's in the material fabric of the building.
