Sell your land outright in Banstead

For owners in Banstead and the SM7 area, an outright land sale is worth understanding before you talk to any buyer, including us.

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.

  • Free appraisal and written offer
  • No pressure to decide
  • Independent advice encouraged

Is an outright land sale right for your land?

  • Owners who want a clean break
  • Executors winding up an estate
  • Businesses relocating from a site
  • 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.

How the money works

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.

Deposit

A deposit is usually paid on exchange, with the balance on completion.

Common questions

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.
