PreApp is a reinvention of the pre-application service.
PreApp is the online system that reinvents the pre-application service. Created by Town Planning Professionals, PreApp combines real-time data and professional experience to let you know the likelihood of achieving planning permission quickly and cheaply.
“PreApp provides a solution to a service provided by local planning authorities that is often slow, expensive, vague and delivered with little care and attention. it is time to prioritise your rights as a property developer or home improver and provide the advice you need specifically for your area.”
— Christopher Whitehouse, MRICS BSc (Hons) RICS Accredited Expert Witness
The system, covering all planning authorities in England and Wales, assesses data in relation to planning decisions, timeframes, and costs in your local council to accurately determine how often your council gives planning permission for your type of proposal, how quickly they provide the decision and what is needed to support your case.
The outcome provides clear understanding of your chances of gaining planning permission, the costs expected for the required planning application, the average expected timeframe for a decision, the specific weaknesses and strengths of your case and what can be done to improve your chances of permission.
The system provides a clear understanding of the actual likelihood of achieving planning permission for your extension, your new build or your major development project. The data is combined with analysis by Town Planning Professionals, to provide clear, site-specific advice for your case.
