Your questions answered
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.
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.
Do you buy land in Longton?
Yes. We consider land in and around Longton and across Staffordshire. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
