When an outright land sale suits land in North Yorkshire

  • Owners who want a clean break
  • Businesses relocating from a site
  • Land with a registered title and no disputes
  • Sites where any hope value is modest
  • Owners who've had a sale fall through

An outright sale means you're paid on completion and the land, and its risks, become ours.

What to check in an outright land sale

Planning risk

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

Vacant possession

Land free of tenants and occupiers completes more easily.

Deposit

A deposit is usually paid on exchange, with the balance on completion.

Costs

You normally pay your own legal costs on a straightforward sale.

From first call to completion

  1. Send us the address

    A postcode, a plan or a what3words location is enough to start.

  2. We check it properly

    Title, planning history, access, flood maps and local policy.

  3. We put an offer in writing

    It shows how we got there. There's no obligation to accept.

  4. Solicitors complete the sale

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

Rules that apply in England

Land registration

Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.

Awkward details we deal with

You think the land might get planning later

An overage clause can pay you a share of any future uplift.

You need the money by a certain date

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

Useful to send us

  • The address or postcode
  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Any planning applications or letters

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 buy land in North Yorkshire?

Yes. We consider land across North Yorkshire, from York to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
