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
- Sites where any hope value is modest
- 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.
What to check in an outright land sale
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.
Deposit
A deposit is usually paid on exchange, with the balance on completion.

Your questions answered
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.
Can you pull out after exchange?
No. An unconditional exchange is legally binding on both sides.
Do you buy land in Powys?
Yes. We consider land across Powys, from Newtown to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
