When an outright land sale suits land near Brentwood

  • Land with planning permission already granted
  • Executors winding up an estate
  • Land with a registered title and no disputes
  • Sites where any hope value is modest

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.

How the money works

Planning risk

Without permission, the price reflects the chance planning is refused.

Title

Clean, registered title keeps an unconditional sale simple.

Vacant possession

Land free of tenants and occupiers completes more easily.

Costs

You normally pay your own legal costs on a straightforward sale.

What England's rules mean for your land

Land registration

Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.

When the land isn't straightforward

You think the land might get planning later

An overage clause can pay you a share of any future uplift.

You need the money by a certain date

Tell us at the start. We'll be honest about whether that's achievable.

Useful to send us

  • Any planning applications or letters

What people ask us about an outright land sale

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.
