Joint ventures on land in Westbury
We offer a land joint venture on land across Wiltshire, including sites around Westbury, Warminster and Trowbridge.
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.
- Figures explained, so you can check them
- Independent advice encouraged
- Clear terms in writing

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.
How the money works
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.
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.

Rules that apply in England
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.
Common problems, and how we handle them
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're worried about the risk
You can limit risk through the structure, but not remove it. Take independent advice.
Useful to send us
- The address or postcode
- A rough size, in acres or hectares

- How soon you'd ideally like to sell
What people ask us about a land joint venture
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.
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.
Can you visit land near Westbury?
Yes. Once we've looked at the title and planning position, we arrange a site visit if the land looks suitable. Send the address or postcode to start.
