Who an outright land sale works best for
- Land with planning permission already granted

- Executors winding up an estate
- Land with a registered title and no disputes
This is the route for land with planning permission, for executors who need to wind up an estate, and for anyone who'd rather not wait.
The terms that matter
Planning risk
Without permission, the price reflects the chance planning is refused.
Speed
A faster sale can mean a lower price than a conditional deal that waits for permission.
Overage
Adding an overage clause can let you share in later uplift after an outright sale.
Costs
You normally pay your own legal costs on a straightforward sale.
