What to check in a land joint venture
Structure
Land price plus profit share, a partnership or a company: each has different tax and legal effects.
Control
Agreements set who decides what, and what happens if you disagree.
Land value
How your land is valued going into the venture matters.
Tax
Joint ventures can change how your proceeds are taxed, so take tax advice first.

What Wales's rules mean for your land
Planning framework
Planning in Wales follows Planning Policy Wales, the national plan Future Wales and the Local Development Plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. When plans are reviewed, landowners can put land forward as a candidate site.
Tax on the sale
In Wales the buyer pays Land Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty. As the seller you may owe capital gains tax. Take advice from an accountant.
When the land isn't straightforward
You're not sure you can afford to wait
Many structures pay part of the land value up front, with the rest as homes sell.
You're worried about the risk
You can limit risk through the structure, but not remove it. Take independent advice.
