Is an outright land sale right for your land?

  • Land with planning permission already granted
  • Owners who want a clean break
  • Businesses relocating from a site
  • Owners who've had a sale fall through

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.

Costs

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

Questions from landowners near Wellingborough

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.

Can I still benefit if you get planning later?

Yes, if we agree an overage clause in the contract.
