Who an outright land sale works best for

  • Land with planning permission already granted
  • Owners who want a clean break
  • Executors winding up an estate
  • Businesses relocating from a site

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

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.

Costs

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

When the land isn't straightforward

You need the money by a certain date

Tell us at the start. We'll be honest about whether that's achievable.

Common questions

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 I still benefit if you get planning later?

Yes, if we agree an overage clause in the contract.

Can you pull out after exchange?

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

Can you visit land near Haverhill?

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.
