Who a subject-to-planning sale works best for
- Building plots and garden land without permission
- Land where a previous permission has lapsed
- Brownfield sites needing a housing permission
- Land with a registered title
A conditional contract shares the planning risk fairly. You agree a price today, we fund and run the planning application, and the sale completes if permission comes through.

Acceptable permission
The contract defines what counts as an acceptable consent.

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

Rules that apply in Wales
Planning framework
Planning in Wales follows Planning Policy Wales, the national plan Future Wales and the Local Development Plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. When plans are reviewed, landowners can put land forward as a candidate site.
Section 106 and CIL
Section 106 agreements apply in Wales, and a small number of Welsh councils charge the Community Infrastructure Levy.
Awkward details we deal with
You want to know what 'acceptable' permission means

Your questions answered
Who pays for the planning application?
We do, along with the surveys and consultants needed to support it.
Do I get a deposit?
A deposit is usually paid on exchange, with terms set out in the contract.
How long does the planning stage take?
In England the statutory period is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major ones; in Wales it's eight weeks. Both extend to sixteen weeks where an environmental impact assessment is needed, and surveys, validation and negotiation often add time.
