Is your land near Tamworth a good fit?

  • Plots for one to a handful of homes
  • Plots with a road frontage or a private drive
  • Plots where a previous permission has lapsed
  • Plots that need a demolition first

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.

Access

Visibility splays and parking need room on smaller plots.

Choosing how to sell

Outright purchase

The usual route for plots with permission.

Subject-to-planning sale

We buy once permission is granted for an agreed scheme.

Option agreements

Rarely needed for single plots.

Joint ventures

Can suit owners who want to share in the home's sale price.

How a sale works

  1. Send us the address

    A postcode, a plan or a what3words location is enough to start.

  2. We do the homework

    We read the title and planning record and check flood risk and access.

  3. You get a written offer

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

  4. The legal work

    Your solicitor and ours handle the contract through to completion.

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.

Useful to send us

  • The address or postcode
  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
  • 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.

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 Tamworth?

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