What Wales's rules mean for your land
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.
Land registration
HM Land Registry covers Wales as well as England. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold.
Awkward details we deal with
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.
Useful to send us
- A rough size, in acres or hectares
- Your title number, if you know it
- Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
- Photos of the land and its access
Common questions
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.
Do you cover the villages around Llandaff?
Yes. Villages between Llandaff, Whitchurch and Cardiff often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
