Sell land with planning permission in Evesham

Whether your land is in Evesham itself or in the villages between Evesham and Bishops Cleeve, we'll look at it properly before making any offer.

Land with planning permission has consent from the local planning authority to build a specific development, either in outline (the principle) or in full (the detailed design). We buy consented sites directly, check the permission and its conditions, and make an offer you can accept without marketing the land.

  • No commission: we're the buyer
  • Figures explained, so you can check them

Is your land near Evesham a good fit?

  • Reserved matters approvals or discharge-of-conditions decisions already in place
  • Permissions that are still within their time limit, or have been lawfully started
  • Sites with a signed Section 106 agreement we can read
  • Plots with permission in principle

A site with a live planning permission is the simplest land to sell. The main questions are whether the permission is still valid, what its conditions require and how much the Section 106 agreement costs to deliver.

What decides the value of land with planning permission near Evesham

Type of permission

Full permission carries less risk than outline, which still needs reserved matters approval.

Section 106 and CIL

Affordable housing and financial contributions come straight off what a buyer can pay.

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.

Four routes to a sale

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.

What happens next

  1. Send us the address

    A postcode, a plan or a what3words location is enough to start.

  2. We check it properly

    Title, planning history, access, flood maps and local policy.

  3. We put an offer in writing

    It shows how we got there. There's no obligation to accept.

  4. Solicitors complete the sale

    Exchange and complete, or exchange now and complete when planning is granted.

What England's rules mean for your land

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 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.

  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
  • Photos of the land and its access
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

Your questions answered

How long does planning permission last?

In England, full planning permission usually requires work to start within three years, and in Wales within five, unless the decision notice says otherwise. Outline permissions have separate time limits for reserved matters. The decision notice sets out the exact dates.

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.

Do you buy land in Evesham?

Yes. We consider land in and around Evesham and across Worcestershire. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
