ABOUT THE HOST
Ian Walmsley is a third-generation experienced developer who loves Planning. Referred to as a ‘Walking Encyclopaedia’ by a mentor he developed a passion for planning in 2015 having got fed up with inaccurate information on some websites as to what was possible with property or land that he was looking to develop.
In 2017 he set up the site ‘Planning Geek‘ as a way to inform others as to the possibilities of using permitted development rights on both domestic and commercial property. This has now grown to cover many other aspects of planning, giving plenty of ‘wow’ moments. To the best of our knowledge, It is now the largest planning website in the UK, apart from the national planning portal.
He now speaks around the UK at both property meets and with mentorship groups as a developer/planning geek.
As a developer with his company, Leading Homes, he has 40 dwellings under construction with a further 50 plus in legals or pre-construction.
The one thing he is not is a Planning Consultant – he is a Planning Geek – although a chartered town planner said ‘Ian knows more about planning than most planners!’. He is simply ‘A developer who loves planning’. As a result he has nothing to sell from his talks, which is always a refreshing change!

#034: Cruises, the Rough with the Smooth & Planning for 2 Adjoining Properties.
Ian's on a cruise, so during this episode we join him on board the Celebrity Reflection (https://www.celebritycruises.com/gb/cruise-ships/celebrity-reflection) in Mexico.
As well as being a "Planning Geek", Ian's a "Travel Geek", where he helps you travel for less, instead of breaking the bank every time you go away!
He had many questions land at his desk as usual. This week, Tim asks if he's planning for 2 adjoining properties, and wants to complete it in 2 separate phases, what are his options? As always, a fully comprehensive answer is provided.
From the outset Ian always promised that you'd hear about the rough as well as the smooth on this podcast. He's currently facing a drainage challenge at one of Leading Homes's sites.. He's working diligently to sort the problem despite being on holiday. He talks about some potential causes, and what he's doing to try and return the flats to normal. He's taking this as a heavy learning experience!
