What makes building plots near Northolt worth an offer

  • Plots with full or outline planning permission
  • Unconsented plots in residential streets
  • Corner plots and end-of-terrace side plots
  • Plots that need a demolition first

Whether your plot has full permission, outline consent or none at all, we'll look at what can realistically be built and make an offer to match.

What affects the price

House size

The size and type of home the plot can take sets its value.

Services

Connections to water, power and sewers can cost more than you'd expect.

Local values

Plot values follow what a finished home would sell for locally.

Self-build exemptions

Some plots carry obligations or exemptions linked to self-build that we check.

Rules that apply in England

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.

Section 106 and CIL

Larger schemes often need a Section 106 agreement for affordable housing or contributions, and councils that have adopted the Community Infrastructure Levy charge it per square metre of new floorspace.

When the land isn't straightforward

The permission has lapsed

A new application is often straightforward if policy hasn't changed, and we can make that a condition of purchase.

The plot shares a drive

Shared access needs the right legal rights. Your solicitor will check the deeds.
