Sell your land outright in Humberstone

- No commission: we're the buyer
- We fund the planning work

Is an outright land sale right for your land?
- Land with planning permission already granted
- Executors winding up an estate
- Businesses relocating from a site
- Sites where any hope value is modest
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.
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.

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.
When do I get paid?
Normally a deposit at exchange and the balance at completion, as set out in the contract.
Can I still benefit if you get planning later?
Yes, if we agree an overage clause in the contract.
Do you cover the villages around Humberstone?
Yes. Villages between Humberstone, Leicester and Oadby often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
