Joint ventures on land in Leyland
Before you agree a land joint venture on land near Leyland, it helps to know exactly when you'd be paid, who carries the planning risk and how the price is set.
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.

What England's rules mean for your land

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 questions
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.
Can a joint venture include affordable homes?
Yes. Affordable and social housing can form part of a scheme, and we can talk through how it affects returns.
Do you buy land in Leyland?
Yes. We consider land in and around Leyland and across Lancashire. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
