Planning and legal points for land in the West Midlands

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.

Selling land in the West Midlands: questions

Do you buy land in the West Midlands?

Yes. We buy land across the West Midlands, including around Birmingham, Coventry and Wolverhampton. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects.

Which planning rules apply to land in the West Midlands?

Land in England is assessed against the National Planning Policy Framework and the council's local plan.

Do you buy land on the the West Midlands border?

Yes. We also cover Worcestershire, Warwickshire and Staffordshire, so land close to the county boundary is fine.

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.
