Sell inherited or probate land in Tenby
Whether your land is in Tenby itself or in the villages between Tenby and Pembroke Dock, we'll look at it properly before making any offer.
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.
- No commission: we're the buyer
- No pressure to decide
- Independent advice encouraged

What we look for around Tenby
- Fields, paddocks and plots left in a will
- Land held by executors or administrators
- Land shared between several family members
- Plots and gardens attached to a property being sold
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
Grant of representation
A sale can usually only complete once probate or letters of administration are granted.
Title
Unregistered titles need first registration, which adds time.
Planning potential
Inherited land near settlements may have value the family hasn't considered.
Overage
Executors sometimes prefer a lower price now with a share of future uplift.
Four routes to a sale
Outright purchase
A clean, certain sale that lets the estate be wound up.
Subject-to-planning sale
Possible if beneficiaries are happy to wait for a higher price.
Option agreements
Can suit families who want to hold on while planning is explored.
Joint ventures
Rare for estates, but possible where family members wish to stay involved.

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.
Awkward details we deal with
Probate hasn't been granted yet
We can agree terms and start the legal work so the sale is ready when the grant arrives.
Beneficiaries disagree
A written offer with a clear basis helps everyone see the facts. Each beneficiary can take their own advice.

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.
Can you deal with our solicitor directly?
Yes. Once you instruct a solicitor, we can work through them.
Will you pressure us to decide quickly?
No. Take the time you need and take independent advice.
Do you cover the villages around Tenby?
Yes. Villages between Tenby, Pembroke Dock and Milford Haven often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
