What makes building plots near Jarrow worth an offer
- Plots with a road frontage or a private drive
- Plots with full or outline planning permission
- Unconsented plots in residential streets
- Corner plots and end-of-terrace side plots
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.
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.
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.

What England's rules mean for your land
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.
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
- A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
- Any planning applications or letters
- Photos of the land and its access

Common questions
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.
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 cover the villages around Jarrow?
Yes. Villages between Jarrow, Hebburn and Wallsend often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
