The key to building new house is land, so if you have some land that you are considering selling it could be more valuable that you think. The demand for houses continues to increase and this offers you the opportunity for land owners to sell land and reap the rewards of the land for potential residential housing developments. 

Your land is an asset, whether it be farm land, a large garden, paddocks, a country estate or fields there might be potential for you to sell your land for development. It’s likely that your first question might be ‘how much is my land worth?’

There is no simple answer to knowing how much your land is worth, it’s very different to getting a valuation of a house.
There are a number of things that affect the development of land and planning permission is key to this.

Getting planning permission for your land can be a risky and expensive process. An application for planning permission for housing development can cost hundreds of thousands of pounds, which is where a land promoter can help you.

We will gain planning permission on your behalf and then get your land ready to market to developers and house builders to get you the most amount of money. Our return is based on a pre-agreed split of the total sale. 

We will ensure that you are up to date throughout the whole process of selling your land which includes the planning permission and the details of the project. Local Authorities have the ability request mitigation against development on the land, and we have experts in out team to over come the objections that might arise from Local Authorities.

Having planning permission when selling your land helps to remove the risk for most housing developers and this will result in them paying more for your land than they would without planning permission. 

Selling your plot of land to a developer can often result in the developer paying less for the land as the value is ultimately unknown until planning permission has been granted. Planning permission for the land has a huge impact on how much the land is worth. There are usually two ways a developer would agree to buy your land:

A developer will agree a fixed cost for the land and is typically at a discount of the lands true value

A developer will agree a fixed percentage of the market value of the land once planning permission has been granted, this will reflect the risk they are taking on and will be lower value than the sites value.
