Planning and legal points for land in Buckinghamshire
Green belt and grey belt
Green belt land is protected from inappropriate development. National policy in England also recognises 'grey belt': green belt land that doesn't strongly contribute to key green belt purposes, where housing can be acceptable if further tests are met.
Brownfield first
National policy gives substantial weight to reusing suitable brownfield land for homes. Councils keep brownfield land registers, and some sites can gain permission in principle.
Land registration
Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.

Your questions answered
Do you buy land in Gerrards Cross?
Yes. We consider land in and around Gerrards Cross and across Buckinghamshire. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
How do I get an offer for land in Gerrards Cross?
Use the form on this page or call 0800 088 6248. Tell us the postcode, the rough size and anything you know about planning, and we'll come back to you.
Do you buy land without planning permission?
Yes. You can sell outright at a price that reflects the planning risk, or on a subject-to-planning or option basis that pays more if permission is granted.
What is a rural exception site?
It is a small site, usually next to a village, where planning permission can be granted for affordable homes as an exception to normal policy, to meet a proven local need.
