Sell your land outright in Bow
We offer an outright land sale on land across Greater London, including sites around Bow, Stratford and Canary Wharf.
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 pressure to decide
- Independent advice encouraged

Who an outright land sale works best for

- Executors winding up an estate
- Businesses relocating from a site
- Owners who've had a sale fall through
An outright sale means you're paid on completion and the land, and its risks, become ours.
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.
Deposit
A deposit is usually paid on exchange, with the balance on completion.

You think the land might get planning later
An overage clause can pay you a share of any future uplift.
A previous buyer pulled out
With an unconditional exchange, we're legally committed to complete.

Questions from landowners near Bow
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.
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.
Can I still benefit if you get planning later?
Yes, if we agree an overage clause in the contract.
Can you visit land near Bow?
Yes. Once we've looked at the title and planning position, we arrange a site visit if the land looks suitable. Send the address or postcode to start.
