Sell land subject to planning in Isleworth

Choosing how to sell matters as much as choosing who to sell to. For land near Isleworth, a subject-to-planning sale trades certainty and timing in a particular way.

A subject-to-planning sale, or conditional contract, is a sale where contracts are exchanged now but completion only happens once an acceptable planning permission is granted. It lets you agree a price based on the land's value with permission, while the buyer pays for and manages the application.

  • No commission: we're the buyer
  • Figures explained, so you can check them

Where Isleworth sits

Isleworth (TW7) sits in OS grid square TQ17, some 10 miles west of central London. Sites between here and Hounslow or Richmond are just as much of interest to us.

Land is scarce and mostly brownfield. The outer boroughs contain Metropolitan Green Belt and metropolitan open land, both closely protected.

Is a subject-to-planning sale right for your land?

  • Building plots and garden land without permission
  • Land where a previous permission has lapsed
  • Brownfield sites needing a housing permission
  • Owners willing to wait for a higher price

This route suits most building plots, garden land and small sites, where the planning process can be measured in months rather than years.

The terms that matter

Long-stop date

If permission isn't granted by an agreed date, either side can end the contract.

Acceptable permission

The contract defines what counts as an acceptable consent.

Price adjustments

Some contracts adjust the price for the number of homes approved.

Your use meanwhile

You normally keep using the land until completion.

Rules that apply in England

Planning framework

Planning decisions in England follow the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026, and the local plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. Plans are reviewed periodically, which is when new housing sites are usually allocated.

Section 106 and CIL

Larger schemes often need a Section 106 agreement for affordable housing or contributions, and councils that have adopted the Community Infrastructure Levy charge it per square metre of new floorspace.

When the land isn't straightforward

You want to know what 'acceptable' permission means

The contract defines it, such as a minimum number of homes. Your solicitor should check it carefully.

You're worried we'll get permission for something you don't like

The contract can set out the scheme or limits on what we apply for.

Useful to send us

  • A rough size, in acres or hectares
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • Photos of the land and its access
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

Your questions answered

What is a subject-to-planning sale?

A sale where contracts are exchanged now, but completion depends on planning permission being granted. If it isn't granted by the long-stop date, the contract can end.

What happens if planning is refused?

We may appeal if the contract allows. If permission isn't secured by the long-stop date, the contract ends and you keep your land.

Can I still use the land before completion?

Usually yes, until we need access for surveys or until completion.
