What decides the value of inherited land near Daventry

Planning potential

Inherited land near settlements may have value the family hasn't considered.

What England's rules mean for your land

Land registration

Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.

Tax on the sale

The buyer pays Stamp Duty Land Tax. As the seller you may owe capital gains tax, and some commercial land carries VAT. 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.

  • A rough size, in acres or hectares

  • Photos of the land and its access

Your questions answered

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.

What if the land is unregistered?

It can still be sold. The title will be registered as part of the sale, which adds some time.

Can you deal with our solicitor directly?

Yes. Once you instruct a solicitor, we can work through them.

Can you visit land near Daventry?

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.
