Is your land near Bangor a good fit?

  • Fields adjoining towns, villages or housing estates
  • Land with vacant possession, or where tenancies can be ended

The things that move our offer

Location

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

Severance

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

Planning prospects

Hope value applies where homes could realistically be built.

Ways to sell this land

Outright purchase

A clean sale at farmland value plus any hope value we can justify.

Subject-to-planning sale

Option agreements

Joint ventures

Rules that apply in Wales

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.

Awkward details we deal with

The land is tenanted

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

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.

Useful to send us

  • The address or postcode
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • Photos of the land and its access

Questions from landowners near Bangor

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.

What about the tenant?

Tenanted land can be sold, but the tenant's rights continue. Ending a tenancy follows statutory rules, so we assess this at the start.
