Sorry another complicated question. Looked at another property and its setup pretty well to split it in half without much effort.
There use to be a door but bricked up now and covered.
What are the legals and steps to have a door put in and a few pipes moved and one or two dry walls?
It seems a better option to split the place if its not too expensive to cut the red tape.
Do you need following?
Drawings
Notary
Planning permission?
Pretty much nothing changes in the apartment, just adding one dry wall and front door, a opening in another dry wall and a bathroom door?
and closing two old door openings in drywall. Then some minor plumbing and that's all. On the other side there is plumbing for a bathroom already.
I could like in the UK make two internal doors from the main door but it does not utilize the space well. But then I could claim I am renting part of the one apartment out and no need for changing the status. But will this effect insurance? Lets say the tenant burns the place down?
cheers
