What we look for around Tipton

  • 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.

How we arrive at a figure for land in the West Midlands

Frontage width

Enough width for a home and its access shapes how much can be built.

Street character

Design must fit the street, especially in conservation areas.

Local plan policy

Some rural policies allow infill of one or two homes in small villages.

Neighbours

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

Choosing how to sell

Outright purchase

Simple where permission already exists.

Subject-to-planning sale

The usual route for unconsented gap sites.

Option agreements

Seldom needed for single infill plots.

Joint ventures

Possible for a pair of homes if you'd like a share.

Planning and legal points for land in the West Midlands

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.

Common problems, and how we handle them

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

  • The address or postcode
  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Any planning applications or letters

What people ask us about infill plots

What is an infill plot?

A small gap in an otherwise built-up frontage, usually between two existing buildings, that a new home could fill.

Is infill easier to get permission for?

Often, because it continues the existing street pattern. Policy varies by council, especially in villages.

Will you buy a gap site with a derelict garage on it?

Yes. We'll allow for demolition and any clean-up.

Can you visit land near Tipton?

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.
