Sell your land outright in Ashington

We offer an outright land sale on land across Northumberland, including sites around Ashington, Bedlington and Blyth.

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.

  • No commission: we're the buyer
  • No pressure to decide
  • Independent advice encouraged

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
  • Land with a registered title and no disputes

If certainty matters more than squeezing out the highest possible figure, an outright purchase is usually the right route.

What to check in an outright land sale

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.

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.

You think the land might get planning later

Your questions answered

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.

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.

Do you buy land in Ashington?

Yes. We consider land in and around Ashington and across Northumberland. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
