The things that move our offer

Permission

A plot with full permission is worth the most because building can start once conditions are met.

Neighbours

Overlooking and loss of light to neighbours limit what can be built.

Access

Visibility splays and parking need room on smaller plots.

Local values

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

    Exchange and complete, or exchange now and complete when planning is granted.

What Wales's rules mean for your land

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.

Section 106 and CIL

Section 106 agreements apply in Wales, and a small number of Welsh councils charge the Community Infrastructure Levy.

Common problems, and how we handle them

Self-builders keep pulling out

Self-builders often need mortgages and stage finance. A builder buying direct can remove that uncertainty.

The permission has lapsed

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

Useful to send us

  • The address or postcode
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements

Common questions

How much is a building plot worth?

It depends mostly on what the finished home would sell for, minus building costs and a profit margin. We'll show you how our figure is reached.

Will you buy a plot with an old house on it?

Yes. Demolition and rebuild can work well, and we price in demolition costs.

Do I need to clear the plot before selling?

No. We buy sites as they are.

Do you buy land in Maesteg?

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