Sell redundant commercial or industrial land in Edmonton

We buy redundant commercial land across Greater London. In Edmonton, as everywhere, the offer depends on the land itself: its access, its planning prospects and what can sensibly be built.

Redundant commercial and industrial land is a business site no longer needed for its original use, such as a small industrial unit, haulage yard or showroom. Where the site sits among homes, redevelopment for housing is often the best long-term use, subject to planning policy on employment land.

  • Free appraisal and written offer
  • Figures explained, so you can check them
  • No pressure to decide

What makes redundant commercial land near Edmonton worth an offer

  • Small industrial units and yards in residential areas
  • Former showrooms, garages and workshops
  • Commercial buildings with permitted development potential
  • Sites with a mix of buildings and open storage

We buy small commercial and industrial sites, including those still occupied, and plan a route to vacant possession that fits your timetable.

The things that move our offer

Existing use value

A let or lettable commercial site has a value that a housing offer must exceed.

Demolition and contamination

Industrial uses can leave contamination that needs investigating.

Leases

Occupational leases and security of tenure affect timing.

Neighbours

Homes next to retained businesses need careful design for noise.

Ways to sell this land

Outright purchase

A clean exit for business owners, sometimes with a short leaseback.

Subject-to-planning sale

We complete once housing is approved, with your business using the site meanwhile.

Option agreements

Useful where vacant possession is some way off.

Joint ventures

Possible for larger sites.

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.

Brownfield first

National policy gives substantial weight to reusing suitable brownfield land for homes. Councils keep brownfield land registers, and some sites can gain permission in principle.

Tax on the sale

The buyer pays Stamp Duty Land Tax. As the seller you may owe capital gains tax, and some commercial land carries VAT. Take advice from an accountant.

Common problems, and how we handle them

You still need the premises for now

A conditional deal or a short leaseback lets you keep operating until you're ready to move.

The council protects employment land

We look at marketing evidence and viability. Some sites won't qualify, and we'll say so.

Useful to send us

  • The address or postcode
  • A rough size, in acres or hectares
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Photos of the land and its access

Questions from landowners near Edmonton

Can I keep running my business after selling?

Yes, through a conditional contract or a short leaseback agreed as part of the deal.

Do you buy sites with tenants in place?

Yes. We review the leases and allow for the time and cost of obtaining vacant possession.

Will contamination stop a sale?

Rarely. It usually affects the price and the timetable rather than whether we buy.
