Sell a building plot in Pontypridd
We buy building plots across Mid Glamorgan. In Pontypridd, as everywhere, the offer depends on the land itself: its access, its planning prospects and what can sensibly be built.
If you've been trying to sell a plot to self-builders without success, a direct sale to a builder can be simpler and quicker.

What we look for around Pontypridd
- Plots for one to a handful of homes
- Unconsented plots in residential streets
- Plots where a previous permission has lapsed
- Corner plots and end-of-terrace side plots
Single plots are often overlooked by larger developers. We buy them because small sites matter and because our aim is to build on them.
What affects the price
Permission
A plot with full permission is worth the most because building can start once conditions are met.
House size
The size and type of home the plot can take sets its value.
Neighbours
Overlooking and loss of light to neighbours limit what can be built.
Services
Connections to water, power and sewers can cost more than you'd expect.

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.
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
- Any planning applications or letters
- Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
- Photos of the land and its access
What people ask us about building plots
Do you buy plots without planning permission?
Yes, usually subject to planning, so you're paid a price that reflects value with consent.
Do I need to clear the plot before selling?
No. We buy sites as they are.
What happens to any CIL on the plot?
Where CIL applies, it's usually paid by whoever builds. Some self-build exemptions exist, which we check.
Do you buy land in Pontypridd?
Yes. We consider land in and around Pontypridd 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.
