The things that move our offer

Effect on your house

Losing garden space can affect your home's value, which we take into account with you.

Neighbour amenity

Privacy, light and outlook for neighbours shape what can be built.

Trees

Protected or large trees can limit the plot.

Combined sites

Several gardens together can be worth more than each sold separately.

Choosing how to sell

Outright purchase

Suits garden plots that already have planning permission.

Subject-to-planning sale

The usual route for garden land: we complete when permission is granted.

Option agreements

Useful when several neighbours' gardens are being assembled.

Joint ventures

Possible if you'd like a share of the new home's value.

From first call to completion

  1. Tell us about your land

    Send the postcode or address and a rough size.

  2. We check it properly

    Title, planning history, access, flood maps and local policy.

  3. You get a written offer

    With the main figures behind it, so your adviser can check it.

  4. The legal work

    Your solicitor and ours handle the contract through to completion.

Rules that apply in Wales

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.

Garden land

Councils in Wales judge garden development against their Local Development Plan policies on character and amenity.

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

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
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements

Your questions answered

Can I sell part of my garden?

Yes. Your solicitor will divide the title, and your mortgage lender will need to agree to release the land if it has a charge over it.

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.

Can you visit land near Clydach?

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.
