Is your land near Whitchurch a good fit?

  • Plots with a road frontage or a private drive
  • Unconsented plots in residential streets
  • Plots where a previous permission has lapsed
  • 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.

How we arrive at a figure for land in South Glamorgan

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.

Local values

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

How a sale works

  1. Tell us about your land

    Send the postcode or address and a rough size.

  2. We check it properly

    Title, planning history, access, flood maps and local policy.

  3. You get a written offer

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

  4. Solicitors complete the sale

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

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.

Awkward details we deal with

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.

Useful to send us

  • The address or postcode
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

Your questions answered

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.

Can I sell a plot in my garden?

Yes. See our page on garden land, which covers the extra points to consider when splitting a garden.

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

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