Sell your land outright in Hexham

We offer an outright land sale on land across Northumberland, including sites around Hexham, Prudhoe and Consett.

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.

The terms that matter

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.

Title

Clean, registered title keeps an unconditional sale simple.

Costs

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

Common problems, and how we handle them

You think the land might get planning later

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

Questions from landowners near Hexham

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.

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.

Can you pull out after exchange?

No. An unconditional exchange is legally binding on both sides.

Can you visit land near Hexham?

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.
