Hi I'm looking for some help on the new permis de construire. I submitted an application in January to raise the roof slightly on my house. As the house is considered to be in a conservation area it has come back from the DDE requesting further information.  However I am at a loss as to what they are looking for.  They mention various  reference numbers - which I presume relate to various forms that need to be included - eg  "PCM14 - Une notice décrivant le terrain et présenant le projet". Does anyone know if there is a standard form for this - I've searched on the official website but can't find anything.  It all seems so complicated that I am now inclinded to just forget the whole  thing !!! Thanks for your help  

Thanks for that.  I have tried to speak to the Notaire but he's not an easy man to pin down (or understand when I do get to speak to him).  He did contact me a while ago to confirm that I would not be attending in person which is when he sent me the PoA to sign.  I was in touch with him when I received the documents and confirmed to him when I had sent it back duly sign - it is a this point things started to go wrong. My main worry was that the date on the CdeV is legally binding but as you mentioned it is not set in stone - so I feel a bit happier now.  I feel sorry for the vendor as I'm sure they just want to get their hands on the dosh. I just wish I had not used Chrono Post - well you live and learn !!    

I sent him a scanned copy of the signed document but he needs the original apparently !

I am in the process of buying a house in Aude.  I signed Compromis in June and final acte was due to be signed today - 20 August.  As I wasn't in a position to travel over for the signing I agreed with the notaire that I would give someone in his office power of attorney.  The notaire took a long time to send me the power of attorney to sign - I eventually recieved it just over a week ago. I signed it and got it notarised here and sent it back via express mail on 13 August(guaranteed 2 days delivery time).  It arrived in France on 15 August but  it seems now that the papers have now been lost by the French chrono post service !!! I have transferred the money which the notaire has received but I don't know what happens now.  The signing of the final acte was supposed to take place today (this was mentioned in the Compromis).  In this case is there a penalty to pay or will the whole process have to be started again ?? I'm so frustrated !!!!! Any advice ?
