What decides the value of garage sites near Sittingbourne

Tenants and licences

Garage licences can usually be ended on notice; leases need more care.

Overlooking

Garage courts are often enclosed by gardens, which limits the height of new homes.

Contamination

Old fuel, oil and asbestos roofs need checking and safe removal.

Previously developed land

Garage courts are usually treated as brownfield, which can help planning.

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.

The roofs are asbestos

Asbestos cement roofs are common and can be removed safely by licensed contractors. We price it in.

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.

Who deals with asbestos?

If we buy, we take on removal using licensed contractors, and the cost is reflected in our offer.

Do you need all the garages empty before buying?

No. We can exchange contracts and plan vacant possession as part of the deal.

Do you cover the villages around Sittingbourne?

Yes. Villages between Sittingbourne, Faversham and Gillingham often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
