Planning and legal points for land in Derbyshire
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.
Tax on the sale
The buyer pays Stamp Duty Land Tax. As the seller you may owe capital gains tax, and some commercial land carries VAT. Take advice from an accountant.

Common questions
Do you buy land in Belper?
Yes. We consider land in and around Belper and across Derbyshire. 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 Belper?
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 Class Q?
Class Q is a permitted development right in England that allows some agricultural buildings to become homes through a prior approval process, rather than a full planning application, subject to limits and conditions.
