When a land joint venture suits land near Stanford-le-Hope
- Landowners who want a share in development profit
- Families and estates with a long-term view
- Sites where we'd aim to build the homes ourselves
- Land with planning permission or a strong prospect
Some landowners want more than a price. A joint venture lets you share in the value of the finished homes, in return for waiting and accepting some risk.
How the money works
Structure
Land price plus profit share, a partnership or a company: each has different tax and legal effects.
Risk
You share in downside as well as upside, so independent advice is essential.
Timing
Returns arrive as homes sell, which can take years.
Exit
Agreements should say what happens if either side wants out.
