Common questions
Does an outright sale pay the most?
Usually not, for land without permission. You're trading some price for speed and certainty. A conditional deal or option may pay more but takes longer.
When do I get paid?
Normally a deposit at exchange and the balance at completion, as set out in the contract.
Can you pull out after exchange?
No. An unconditional exchange is legally binding on both sides.
Do you buy land in Plymouth?
Yes. We consider land in and around Plymouth and across Devon. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
