Who an outright land sale works best for

- Land with a registered title and no disputes
- Owners who've had a sale fall through
If certainty matters more than squeezing out the highest possible figure, an outright purchase is usually the right route.
The terms that matter
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.
Title
Clean, registered title keeps an unconditional sale simple.
Deposit
A deposit is usually paid on exchange, with the balance on completion.

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.
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.
Do you cover the villages around Basingstoke?
Yes. Villages between Basingstoke, Fleet and Thatcham often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
