Sell your land outright in Brighouse

Before you agree an outright land sale on land near Brighouse, it helps to know exactly when you'd be paid, who carries the planning risk and how the price is set.

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.

  • No pressure to decide
  • Independent advice encouraged
  • We fund the planning work

Who an outright land sale works best for

  • Land with planning permission already granted
  • Businesses relocating from a site
  • Land with a registered title and no disputes
  • 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.

The terms that matter

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.

Vacant possession

Land free of tenants and occupiers completes more easily.

  3. You get a written offer

    With the main figures behind it, so your adviser can check it.

    Exchange and complete, or exchange now and complete when planning is granted.

Questions from landowners near Brighouse

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.

When do I get paid?

Normally a deposit at exchange and the balance at completion, as set out in the contract.

Can I still benefit if you get planning later?

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