Planning and legal points for land in Leicestershire
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.
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 Coalville?
Yes. We consider land in and around Coalville and across Leicestershire. 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 Coalville?
Yes. Villages between Coalville, Loughborough and Swadlincote often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
How fast can I sell my land?
It depends on the land and the deal. A straightforward outright sale of registered land with no tenants can move as fast as the two solicitors can complete the legal work. Unregistered titles, tenancies, access questions and planning conditions all add time. We won't promise a completion date until we've seen the title.
Is my paddock worth more than agricultural land?
Often, because paddocks are close to houses. How much more depends on access, planning policy and whether homes could realistically be built.
