Farmland near a town or village can be worth much more than its farming value suggests. We focus on that kind of land and explain where any premium comes from.

What affects the price

Location

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

Tenancies

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

Overage

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

Planning prospects

Hope value applies where homes could realistically be built.

How a sale works

  1. Send us the address

    A postcode, a plan or a what3words location is enough to start.

  2. We do the homework

    We read the title and planning record and check flood risk and access.

  3. You get a written offer

    With the main figures behind it, so your adviser can check it.

  4. The legal work

    Your solicitor and ours handle the contract through to completion.

Planning and legal points for land in the East Riding of Yorkshire

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.

Farm tenancies

Agricultural Holdings Act tenancies and farm business tenancies have their own notice and compensation rules, which affect when land can be developed.

Land registration

Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.

Awkward details we deal with

The land is tenanted

We look at the tenancy type and the notice and compensation rules before pricing.

You're in an environmental scheme

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

Useful to send us

  • A rough size, in acres or hectares
  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
  • Photos of the land and its access

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.

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.

Can you visit land near Brough?

Yes. Once we've looked at the title and planning position, we arrange a site visit if the land looks suitable. Send the address or postcode to start.
