My brother has recently returned from the US after 22 years and is living in rented accomodation.
He wants to build close to our sister who recently moved to Co Meath where local needs apply.
I told him he wont get permission but he tells me he has it sussed.
He has hatched a plan with a local landowner whereby the man's son who lives in Dublin and has no wish to return will apply for full planning permission on his dad's land. Assuming he gets permission the brother buys the land and builds the house. If anyone asks he is renting from the farmers son. His solicitor has told him that as he doesn't need to apply for a mortgage he should get away with it.
I tell him he's mad, that he'll get caught out somehow and the plan will unravel but he just laughs and says what can they do, theres no law against it, rules were made to be broken.
Any views.
