Land we're keen to see around Redhill

  • Rows of lock-ups with a private access road
  • Garage blocks with some or all garages vacant
  • Sites with an existing access onto a public road
  • Sites where neighbours have rights to use the access

Garage courts already have access and hard surfaces, and as previously developed land they can be good candidates for redevelopment.

What affects the price

Access width

The existing access must be safe for homes, including for emergency vehicles.

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.

Previously developed land

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

Ways to sell this land

Outright purchase

Suits sites with consent or owners who want a clean exit.

Subject-to-planning sale

The most common route for garage courts.

Option agreements

Rarely needed unless several garage owners are involved.

Joint ventures

Possible for larger courts.

What England's rules mean for your land

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.

Useful to send us

  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
  • Photos of the land and its access

Common questions

Can garage sites be turned into homes?

Often, yes. Many councils support redeveloping underused garage courts, subject to access, overlooking and parking.

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.
