Who an outright land sale works best for

  • Land with planning permission already granted
  • Executors winding up an estate
  • Land with a registered title and no disputes
  • Sites where any hope value is modest

This is the route for land with planning permission, for executors who need to wind up an estate, and for anyone who'd rather not wait.

How the money works

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.

Title

Clean, registered title keeps an unconditional sale simple.

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 need the money by a certain date

Tell us at the start. We'll be honest about whether that's achievable.

A previous buyer pulled out

With an unconditional exchange, we're legally committed to complete.

Useful to send us

  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

Common questions

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.

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.

Can you visit land near Grantham?

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.
