What England's rules mean for your land
Planning framework
Planning decisions in England follow the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026, and the local plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. Plans are reviewed periodically, which is when new housing sites are usually allocated.
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.

Questions from landowners near Edmonton
Do you buy land in Edmonton?
Yes. We consider land in and around Edmonton 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 Edmonton?
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.
Do you charge any fees?
No. We're the buyer, not an agent, so there's no commission. You normally pay your own solicitor's fees unless we agree otherwise in writing.
Can green belt land be sold?
Yes. Green belt land can be bought and sold like any other land. The designation affects what can be built on it, and so what it is worth.
