Is an outright land sale right for your land?

  • Executors winding up an estate
  • Businesses relocating from a site
  • Land with a registered title and no disputes
  • 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.

How the money works

Overage

Adding an overage clause can let you share in later uplift after an outright sale.

Vacant possession

Land free of tenants and occupiers completes more easily.

Deposit

A deposit is usually paid on exchange, with the balance on completion.

Costs

You normally pay your own legal costs on a straightforward sale.

From first call to completion

  1. Send us the address

    A postcode, a plan or a what3words location is enough to start.

  2. We check it properly

    Title, planning history, access, flood maps and local policy.

  3. You get a written offer

    With the main figures behind it, so your adviser can check it.

  4. The legal work

    Your solicitor and ours handle the contract through to completion.

Rules that apply in England

Awkward details we deal with

Questions from landowners near Thatcham

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.

Can you pull out after exchange?

No. An unconditional exchange is legally binding on both sides.
