Is your land near Llantwit Major a good fit?

  • Small industrial units and yards in residential areas
  • Haulage yards, builders' yards and depots
  • Former showrooms, garages and workshops
  • Sites with a mix of buildings and open storage

If your business has moved, closed or outgrown its premises, the site may be worth more as housing than as commercial space.

What affects the price

Employment land policy

Some councils require evidence that commercial use is no longer viable before allowing homes.

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.

Neighbours

Homes next to retained businesses need careful design for noise.

Planning and legal points for land in South Glamorgan

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.

Previously developed land

Welsh policy prefers reusing suitable previously developed land in sustainable locations before greenfield sites.

Tax on the sale

In Wales the buyer pays Land Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty. As the seller you may owe capital gains tax. Take advice from an accountant.

Awkward details we deal with

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.

  • A rough size, in acres or hectares

Questions from landowners near Llantwit Major

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.

Do you buy land in Llantwit Major?

Yes. We consider land in and around Llantwit Major and across South 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.
