Is a land joint venture right for your land?
- Landowners who want a share in development profit
- Land with planning permission or a strong prospect
- Owners comfortable sharing risk as well as reward
- Sites suitable for phased delivery
- Land where affordable or social housing forms part of the scheme
Joint ventures can be structured in different ways, from a land price plus a share of profit to a full partnership. We'll explain each so you can choose with your advisers.
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.
Risk
You share in downside as well as upside, so independent advice is essential.
Timing
Returns arrive as homes sell, which can take years.
Tax
Joint ventures can change how your proceeds are taxed, so take tax advice first.

Planning and legal points for land in Lincolnshire
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.
When the land isn't straightforward
You're worried about the risk
You can limit risk through the structure, but not remove it. Take independent advice.
You want to keep part of the land
Joint ventures can cover just part of your holding.

Common questions
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 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 Lincolnshire?
Yes. We consider land across Lincolnshire, from Lincoln to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
