Sell your land outright in Coulsdon

For owners in Coulsdon and the CR5 area, an outright land sale is worth understanding before you talk to any buyer, including us.

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.

  • No pressure to decide
  • Independent advice encouraged
  • We fund the planning work

Is an outright land sale right for your land?

  • Land with planning permission already granted
  • Owners who want a clean break
  • Executors winding up an estate
  • Land with a registered title and no disputes

If certainty matters more than squeezing out the highest possible figure, an outright purchase is usually the right route.

The terms that matter

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.

Vacant possession

Land free of tenants and occupiers completes more easily.

Costs

Common questions

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.

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 you visit land near Coulsdon?

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.
