Katie Price’s ‘row with neighbours’ at new home as Carl Woods is ‘reported to council’

Katie Price is said to be locked in a neighbourhood battle after moving in with fiancé Carl Woods.

The Pricey, 45, stunned fans after she announced she was leaving her mansion last month to live with Carl in a rented property in Essex.

Carl, a car salesman, has been quick to make his mark on the area, turning their new home into a second-hand car lot.

But despite the on-off couple’s new venture, some of their new neighbours are said to be less than impressed with the pair’s doings.

Under planning rules, the storing and selling of cars from a private residential address could be considered an unauthorised change of use of the property.

Some residents have reportedly gotten so irate at Carl’s up-and-coming business, that they have reported him to Essex Council.

Speaking to The Sun, an insider said that several cars had been parked outside the pair’s new digs.

“They haven’t applied for a licence to run a business from the home and cars are always coming and going – it’s really loud,” they added.

The publication reports that the cars have now been removed from the house after the council contacted Katie and Carl.

But this is not the first time that the pair has faced claims about their business ventures.

Whilst she was living in her Mucky Mansion, the local council opened an investigation after allegations of running a second-hand car business at the property were made.

The case was closed in March last year, but a second enforcement investigation is “pending consideration”.

In a statement, Carl’s spokesperson said the salesman was not doing anything illegal from his personal address.

“Carl simply resides at the property and his successful car dealership is run from a separate and secure unit that his company rents.

“Carl has no ongoing enforcement cases with the local council,” they added.

Katie’s management team have been contacted for a response to the allegations.

Currently, anyone storing and selling cars from a private residential home could be breaking the law, as it is an illegal change of use of the property.

Anyone who is caught could face an unlimited fine, including repossession costs of all cars and the clearing up of any damage to the house itself.
