    I am trying to sell a site without planning and it hasn't had much interest.

    I am considering looking for outline planning. What cost would be involved and would it add much value to site?

    Cost would vary a lot depending on several factors. Location (urban or rural), which county/region you'r located in, who you engage - architect/engineer/technician etc but expect to pay €1500 min and up to €3000 or possibly more.

    The answer to the second question is yes, it would increase the value substantially.

    A 'site' without planning is a field, it would definitely add value and get some interest to get planning.

    If you're down my way, the person buying it would have to be from the area for the permission to transfer. So said a lad in the council to me when I was trying miserably to sell a site. I still have it.

    Yes, if site is not served by main sewer then a site assessment will be required to determine its suitability for a waste water treatment system. If all is straight forward with the planning application you would get a decision (hopefully to grant permission) out in 2 months but then the final grant takes another month before it is issued.

    Rural housing policies apply all over the country. Some County Councils are more strict than others though and these policies do limit the number of people who would be interested in buying the site. In a nutshell its rural sites for rural people
