What we look for in West Sussex
- 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
Gap sites in villages and towns often have a clear case for a new home, because they complete a street rather than extend it.

Rules that apply in England
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

Good design is essential in conservation areas. We'll design to the street.
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
- A rough size, in acres or hectares

- Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
Common questions
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 check the conservation area rules for me?
Yes. We look at the council's conservation area appraisal as part of our assessment.
Do you buy land in West Sussex?
Yes. We consider land across West Sussex, from Crawley to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
