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.
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.
Do you cover the villages around Stratford-upon-Avon?
Yes. Villages between Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick and Royal Leamington Spa often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
