Sell inherited or probate land in Mold
Selling inherited land near Mold doesn't have to start with an agent and a marketing campaign. You can talk to a buyer first and still take independent advice before you decide.
Inherited land is land that has passed, or is passing, to someone under a will or the rules of intestacy. Executors or administrators usually need a grant of representation before they can complete a sale, and all beneficiaries' interests need to be considered.
- Figures explained, so you can check them
- No pressure to decide
- Independent advice encouraged

Land we're keen to see around Mold
- Land held by executors or administrators
- Land shared between several family members
- Unregistered land with old deeds
- Land where the family disagrees about what to do
Land in an estate is often unregistered, shared between several people or used informally by neighbours. None of that stops a sale, but it does shape the timetable.
The things that move our offer
Beneficiaries
Everyone entitled needs to be considered, and trustees must act in their interests.
Occupation
Tenants or informal users affect timing and price.
Inheritance tax
Tax due on the estate can make timing important, so speak to the estate's adviser.
Planning potential
Inherited land near settlements may have value the family hasn't considered.

What Wales's rules mean for your land
Land registration
HM Land Registry covers Wales as well as England. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold.
Tax on the sale
In Wales the buyer pays Land Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty. As the seller you may owe capital gains tax. Take advice from an accountant.
When the land isn't straightforward
Probate hasn't been granted yet
We can agree terms and start the legal work so the sale is ready when the grant arrives.
The deeds can't be found
Missing deeds can be dealt with through first registration with supporting evidence. Your solicitor will guide this.
Useful to send us
- A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
- Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
- Photos of the land and its access
- How soon you'd ideally like to sell
Your questions answered
Can executors sell land before probate is granted?
They can agree a sale and start the legal work, but most solicitors won't exchange contracts until the grant is issued, and completion needs it.
Is there tax to pay when inherited land is sold?
Inheritance tax may apply to the estate, and capital gains tax may apply to any rise in value after death. Speak to the estate's accountant or solicitor.
Can you deal with our solicitor directly?
Yes. Once you instruct a solicitor, we can work through them.
