Sell your land outright in Consett
We offer an outright land sale on land across County Durham, including sites around Consett, Stanley and Prudhoe.
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
- No commission: we're the buyer
- We fund the planning work
