How we arrive at a figure for land in the West Midlands

Time left on the permission

A permission close to expiry may need a quick start or a fresh application, and that affects price.

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.

Sale values nearby

What similar new homes sell for locally sets the ceiling on value.

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 the West Midlands

Biodiversity net gain

Under the Environment Act 2021, most developments in England must deliver at least a 10% gain in biodiversity. Since 6 August 2026, sites of 0.2 hectares or less are exempt unless priority habitat is affected.

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.

Common problems, and how we handle them

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 conditions look onerous

Some conditions are routine and some are expensive. We price each one so you can see what is driving the offer.

Useful to send us

  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

What people ask us about land with planning permission

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 you exchange quickly on a consented site?

Often, yes, because the planning question is answered. The pace then depends on title, searches and how quickly both solicitors work.
