Joint ventures on land in Tottenham

Choosing how to sell matters as much as choosing who to sell to. For land near Tottenham, a land joint venture trades certainty and timing in a particular way.

A land joint venture is an arrangement where the landowner contributes the land and a developer contributes funding, planning and building, with the proceeds shared in an agreed way. It can produce the most value for the landowner, but it takes longer and carries more risk than a sale.

  • Free appraisal and written offer
  • No commission: we're the buyer

Who a land joint venture works best for

  • Landowners who want a share in development profit
  • Families and estates with a long-term view
  • Land with planning permission or a strong prospect
  • Owners comfortable sharing risk as well as reward

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

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.

Tax

Joint ventures can change how your proceeds are taxed, so take tax advice first.

Rules that apply in England

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.

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.

Common problems, and how we handle them

You're worried about the risk
