Your questions answered
Do you buy farmland with no development potential?
Our interest is mainly in land with some prospect of development. For pure farmland we may still make an offer, but a local land agent selling to farmers may achieve a better price, and we'll tell you if so.
Can I sell just one field?
Yes. Selling part of a holding is common. Your solicitor will make sure access, drainage and services for the remaining land are protected.
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.
Do you buy land in Rhyl?
Yes. We consider land in and around Rhyl 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.
