Sell your land outright in Northallerton

Before you agree an outright land sale on land near Northallerton, it helps to know exactly when you'd be paid, who carries the planning risk and how the price is set.

An outright purchase, or unconditional sale, is a sale where we agree a price, exchange contracts and complete without waiting for planning permission. It's the quickest and most certain way to sell, but the price reflects the planning risk the buyer takes on.

Is an outright land sale right for your land?

  • 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

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

How the money works

Adding an overage clause can let you share in later uplift after an outright sale.

Land free of tenants and occupiers completes more easily.

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

Your questions answered

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.
