  • Fields adjoining towns, villages or housing estates
  • Parcels with direct access to a public road

How we arrive at a figure for land in Clwyd

Location

Distance from the nearest settlement is the biggest single factor in any development premium.

Land let under an Agricultural Holdings Act tenancy or a farm business tenancy is worth less until vacant possession can be had.

Severance

Selling a field can affect access to, or the value of, the land you keep.

Overage

You may be able to keep a share of any future uplift through an overage clause.

Planning and legal points for land in Clwyd

Planning framework

Planning in Wales follows Planning Policy Wales, the national plan Future Wales and the Local Development Plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. When plans are reviewed, landowners can put land forward as a candidate site.

Farm tenancies

Agricultural Holdings Act tenancies and farm business tenancies apply in Wales as in England, with their own notice and compensation rules.

Land registration

HM Land Registry covers Wales as well as England. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold.

When the land isn't straightforward

You're in an environmental scheme

Some agreements need to be transferred or ended. We check the terms with you.

Selling one field affects the rest of the farm

Rights of access and services can be reserved so the rest of the holding is protected.

  • Any planning applications or letters
  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements

Common questions

What is overage?

Overage is a promise in the sale contract that the buyer will pay you more if the land later gains planning permission or is developed. It lets you share in future uplift after a lower price today.

Do I pay tax when I sell farmland?

Capital gains tax may be due, and reliefs may apply depending on your circumstances. Rules change, so speak to an accountant before you sell.

How quickly can you buy farmland?

With clear title and vacant possession, a straightforward sale can move at the pace of the legal work. Tenancies and unregistered titles take longer.

Do you buy land in Deeside?

Yes. We consider land in and around Deeside and across Clwyd. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
