What people ask us about infill plots
Is infill easier to get permission for?
Often, because it continues the existing street pattern. Policy varies by council, especially in villages.
Can you check the conservation area rules for me?
Yes. We look at the council's conservation area appraisal as part of our assessment.
Do I pay anything for your appraisal?
No. Our appraisal and offer are free and there's no obligation.
Do you buy land in Felling?
Yes. We consider land in and around Felling and across Tyne and Wear. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
