Planning and legal points for land in Greater London
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.
Flood risk
Environment Agency flood maps and the sequential test steer new homes away from areas at highest risk of flooding.
Land registration
Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.

Questions from landowners near Bexley
Do you buy land in Bexley?
Yes. We consider land in and around Bexley and across Greater London. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
Can you visit land near Bexley?
Yes. Once we've looked at the title and planning position, we arrange a site visit if the land looks suitable. Send the address or postcode to start.
How do you work out what my land is worth?
For land with development potential we estimate what the finished homes would sell for and deduct the costs of planning, building, finance, obligations and a profit margin. What's left is the land value. For land without a planning prospect, value is based on its current use.
Can a commercial site be redeveloped for housing?
Often, subject to the council's policies on protecting employment land, plus the usual planning tests.
