What we look for in the West Midlands
- Gaps in a continuous street frontage
- Plots between two houses in a village or town
- Overgrown plots with a pavement frontage
- Sites with an old outbuilding to demolish
- Village plots where small-scale infill is supported by policy
If you own an overgrown gap between houses, it may be worth much more as a plot than as a garden or yard.

Neighbours
Windows and gardens next door limit the size and position of the house.

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.
Heritage
Listed buildings and conservation areas are managed with Historic England and the council's conservation team.
Awkward details we deal with
Part of the gap belongs to a neighbour
Combining land can make a better plot. We can approach the neighbour with you.
There's an old right of way across it
We check the deeds and the public rights of way map before pricing.
Useful to send us

Questions from landowners in the West Midlands
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 the West Midlands?
Yes. We consider land across the West Midlands, from Birmingham to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
