How the money works
Structure
Land price plus profit share, a partnership or a company: each has different tax and legal effects.
Timing
Returns arrive as homes sell, which can take years.
Control
Agreements set who decides what, and what happens if you disagree.
Tax
Joint ventures can change how your proceeds are taxed, so take tax advice first.

Planning and legal points for land in West Yorkshire
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.
Awkward details we deal with
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 want to keep part of the land
Joint ventures can cover just part of your holding.

What people ask us about a land joint venture
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.
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 West Yorkshire?
Yes. We consider land across West Yorkshire, from Leeds to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
