The terms that matter

Planning risk

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

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.

Vacant possession

Land free of tenants and occupiers completes more easily.

How a sale works

    With the main figures behind it, so your adviser can check it.

  4. Solicitors complete the sale

    Exchange and complete, or exchange now and complete when planning is granted.

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.

Common problems, and how we handle them

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.

  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • Photos of the land and its access

Questions from landowners near Morecambe

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.

Can you pull out after exchange?

No. An unconditional exchange is legally binding on both sides.

Do you buy land in Morecambe?

Yes. We consider land in and around Morecambe and across Lancashire. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
