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 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.
What happens if the homes sell for less than expected?
Depending on the structure, your share may fall. That's the risk you take in return for sharing upside.
Do I need separate advice?
Yes. You should have your own solicitor and tax adviser before entering a joint venture.
Do you buy land in Mid Glamorgan?
Yes. We consider land across Mid Glamorgan, from Rhondda to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
