Sell a garage site in Saltash
We buy garage sites across Cornwall. In Saltash, as everywhere, the offer depends on the land itself: its access, its planning prospects and what can sensibly be built.
Garage courts already have access and hard surfaces, and as previously developed land they can be good candidates for redevelopment.
- Free appraisal and written offer
- No commission: we're the buyer
- Independent advice encouraged

Land we're keen to see around Saltash
- Garage blocks with some or all garages vacant
- Garages owned by individuals, companies or associations
- Sites where neighbours have rights to use the access
- Garage sites already granted permission
Lock-up garages are often too small for modern cars and expensive to maintain. As a housing site, a garage court can be worth considerably more.
The things that move our offer
Rights of others
Neighbours may have rights to use the access or park, which must be respected.
Tenants and licences
Garage licences can usually be ended on notice; leases need more care.
Contamination
Old fuel, oil and asbestos roofs need checking and safe removal.
Displaced parking
Councils may want to know where displaced cars will go.

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.
Land registration
Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.
When the land isn't straightforward
Some garages are let
We look at the terms. Licences often end on short notice, which we allow for in the timescale.
Neighbours use the access
We check existing rights and design around them.
Useful to send us
- The address or postcode
- Your title number, if you know it
- Photos of the land and its access
- How soon you'd ideally like to sell
What people ask us about garage sites
What happens to people who rent the garages?
It depends on their agreements. Most are licences that end on notice, which we plan for with you.
Do you buy single garages?
Usually not on their own, unless combined with other land to make a site.
Do you need all the garages empty before buying?
No. We can exchange contracts and plan vacant possession as part of the deal.
Can you visit land near Saltash?
Yes. Once we've looked at the title and planning position, we arrange a site visit if the land looks suitable. Send the address or postcode to start.
