Is an outright land sale right for your land?
- Land with planning permission already granted
- Executors winding up an estate
- Sites where any hope value is modest
- Owners who've had a sale fall through
If certainty matters more than squeezing out the highest possible figure, an outright purchase is usually the right route.

Common questions
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 I still benefit if you get planning later?
Yes, if we agree an overage clause in the contract.
Can you pull out after exchange?
No. An unconditional exchange is legally binding on both sides.
Can you visit land near Crewe?
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.
