If certainty matters more than squeezing out the highest possible figure, an outright purchase is usually the right route.

How the money works

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

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.

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.
