What decides the value of inherited land near Nuneaton
Grant of representation
A sale can usually only complete once probate or letters of administration are granted.
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.
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 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.
When the land isn't straightforward
Beneficiaries disagree
A written offer with a clear basis helps everyone see the facts. Each beneficiary can take their own advice.
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
- Your title number, if you know it
- Photos of the land and its access
- How soon you'd ideally like to sell
What people ask us about inherited land
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.
