Who an outright land sale works best for

  • Land with planning permission already granted
  • Owners who want a clean break
  • 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.

What to check in an outright land sale

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.

Vacant possession

Land free of tenants and occupiers completes more easily.

Costs

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

Common questions

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.

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 cover the villages around Bentley?

Yes. Villages between Bentley, Doncaster and Adwick le Street often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
