00:00:00 00:33:46



You'll hear why Leading Homes have decided to install air source heat pumps into their new builds, at a cost of £7,000 extra per property. Ian will also explain the importance of contacting local residents and speaking to them about your development plans and timeframes, and how it can pay dividends in the long run.

Ian's A-Z of Property is still on the letter A (That's because for some reason there are soooo many A's), this week, it's everything there is to know about "Angel Investors" - If you want to FIND ONE, stay tuned, as there will be an episode to cover that soon.

As always, Ian's had many questions land on his desk during the week. This week on Property on Fire, he answers one about an invalid Class O conversion application, and whether it will now be impacted by the new minimum space requirement regulations that are coming in to force on April 6th. Here's the URL Ian spoke about in his answer:


There's another question from Angie who owns a flat that's failed to meet the minimum letting requirements on it's EPC and wants to know if she can apply for exemption.
