Rules that apply in Wales
Green belts and green wedges
England's grey belt rules don't apply in Wales. Planning Policy Wales sets out green belt and green wedge policy, which strongly restricts development.
Land registration
HM Land Registry covers Wales as well as England. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold.
Tax on the sale
In Wales the buyer pays Land Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty. As the seller you may owe capital gains tax. Take advice from an accountant.

What people ask us about land
Do you buy land in Blackwood?
Yes. We consider land in and around Blackwood and across Gwent. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
Do you cover the villages around Blackwood?
Yes. Villages between Blackwood, Gelligaer and Risca often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
What happens to my information?
We use it to assess your land and contact you about it. Our privacy notice explains how it's stored and your rights.
What counts as strategic land?
There's no legal definition. In practice it means larger sites, often over five acres, whose route to development runs through the local plan or a major planning application.
