Planning and legal points for land in Surrey
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.
Garden land
Councils judge garden plots against local plan policies on character, design and neighbours' amenity. The August 2026 revision of national policy adds support for some development on residential curtilage land, within limits.
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
Your mortgage lender has a charge on the whole property
Your lender needs to agree to release the plot. Your solicitor arranges this.
Neighbours may object
Objections are judged against policy. A careful design reduces genuine impact.
Useful to send us
- A rough size, in acres or hectares
- A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
- Any planning applications or letters
- How soon you'd ideally like to sell
Questions from landowners near Ashford, Surrey

Who pays for the planning application?
On a subject-to-planning deal, we do.
Can you build the house while I still live next door?
Yes. Construction rules, working hours and site management keep disruption down, and we'll agree access arrangements with you.
Do you buy land in Ashford, Surrey?
Yes. We consider land in and around Ashford, Surrey and across Surrey. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
