Your questions answered
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.
Do you buy land in Clwyd?
Yes. We consider land across Clwyd, from Wrexham to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
