Sell your land outright in Slough
We offer an outright land sale on land across Berkshire, including sites around Slough, Windsor and Maidenhead.
An outright purchase, or unconditional sale, is a sale where we agree a price, exchange contracts and complete without waiting for planning permission. It's the quickest and most certain way to sell, but the price reflects the planning risk the buyer takes on.
- Free appraisal and written offer
- Figures explained, so you can check them
- We fund the planning work

Is an outright land sale right for your land?

- Sites where any hope value is modest
If certainty matters more than squeezing out the highest possible figure, an outright purchase is usually the right route.

Common questions
What is an outright land sale?
A sale with no conditions such as planning permission. Once contracts are exchanged, both sides are committed to complete on the agreed date.
How fast can an outright sale complete?
It depends on the title, searches and how quickly both solicitors work. Straightforward registered land can move quickly; we won't promise a date before seeing the title.
When do I get paid?
Normally a deposit at exchange and the balance at completion, as set out in the contract.
