In 2001, we looked at a "4 bedroom" house in a nearby village. The two upstairs bedrooms were obviously converted from the attic, as it had been a bungalow. There wasn't enough headroom to stand up. I asked the vendor if it had planning permission for the two extra rooms, and he said no. The estate agent was being really dishonest there.
Not much point telling him not to do it two hours after he has given their response
If the council have been informed (sorry I missed that bit) then the solicitor won’t now be able to provide an indemnity policy
I bought a property that came with a very large shed/garage in the front. I asked the owner if he had permission for it. He was vague about it, so I got him to pay for a policy, in case the planning came back and asked for it to be demolished. The solicitor said it was unlikely being more than 10 years.

Par for the course or just exceedingly economical with the truth?

Asked a chap why he gave up being an estate agent down south.
`I got sick of lying'
`Who too?'
``Everybody !' Was his reply.

Ironically the one occasion when he was telling the truth. 😂
