Is your land near Stamford Hill a good fit?
- Full or outline permission for one home or more
- Reserved matters approvals or discharge-of-conditions decisions already in place
- Permissions that are still within their time limit, or have been lawfully started
- Prior approvals for conversions, such as agricultural buildings to homes
If you already hold consent, you have done the hard part. We review the decision notice, conditions and any legal agreement, then make an offer that reflects what it will really cost to build.
How we arrive at a figure for land in Greater London
Type of permission
Full permission carries less risk than outline, which still needs reserved matters approval.
Pre-commencement conditions
Conditions that must be discharged before building starts can add surveys, cost and delay.
Scheme quality
A scheme that is hard to build or sell may need redesigning, which reduces the land value.
Abnormal costs
Retaining walls, drainage works or contamination add cost beyond a normal build.
Choosing how to sell
Outright purchase
The usual route for consented land: agree a price, then exchange and complete.
Subject-to-planning sale
Useful if you want us to improve or renew the permission before completion.
Option agreements
Rarely needed once consent exists, but can suit phased sites.
Joint ventures
An option if you would like a share of the profit from building the homes.

Planning and legal points for land in Greater London
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.
Agricultural buildings (Class Q)
In England, Class Q permitted development can allow some agricultural buildings to become homes through prior approval, within limits on size and number of homes.
Section 106 and CIL
Larger schemes often need a Section 106 agreement for affordable housing or contributions, and councils that have adopted the Community Infrastructure Levy charge it per square metre of new floorspace.
When the land isn't straightforward
The permission is about to expire
In England a full permission normally lasts three years and in Wales five. We check whether a lawful start has been made or whether a new application is the better route.
The Section 106 makes the scheme unviable
If costs have moved since consent, a viability review or a variation may be possible. We will tell you if we think that is realistic.

- A rough size, in acres or hectares
- A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
- Your title number, if you know it
Questions from landowners near Stamford Hill
Does a permission go with the land when I sell?
Yes. Planning permission attaches to the land, not to the owner, so it passes to the buyer automatically.
Can you buy if I only have outline permission?
Yes. We will price the reserved matters work and the risk that the detailed design changes the number or type of homes.
Can I sell a plot with prior approval for a barn conversion?
Yes. Prior approvals are time limited and have their own rules, so we check the approval and the building before making an offer.
Do you cover the villages around Stamford Hill?
Yes. Villages between Stamford Hill, Highbury and Tottenham often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
