Joint ventures on land in Leigh
We offer a land joint venture on land across Greater Manchester, including sites around Leigh, Atherton and Tyldesley.
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
- No pressure to decide

Planning and legal points for land in Greater Manchester
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.
Awkward details we deal with
You're not sure you can afford to wait

You want to keep part of the land
Joint ventures can cover just part of your holding.

What people ask us about a land joint venture
What is a land joint venture?
An agreement where you contribute land and we contribute funding, planning and construction, with proceeds shared on agreed terms.
Is a joint venture better than selling?
It can pay more, but you wait longer and share the risk. It suits some owners and not others.
Do I need separate advice?
Yes. You should have your own solicitor and tax adviser before entering a joint venture.
Can you visit land near Leigh?
Yes. Once we've looked at the title and planning position, we arrange a site visit if the land looks suitable. Send the address or postcode to start.
