Land value
How your land is valued going into the venture matters.

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 not sure you can afford to wait
Many structures pay part of the land value up front, with the rest as homes sell.

An agreement where you contribute land and we contribute funding, planning and construction, with proceeds shared on agreed terms.
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.
