Examples of our Recent Successes with Residential Development Land in Norfolk

With a dawn of the New Year, many people will be looking ahead to the New Year and the opportunities that this may bring.

However, if you are considering selling your land for residential development, please take a look at the key points below as to why it is important to engage the services of a specialist in the field…….

Selling a house is significantly different to selling land for residential development, here’s why and why it pays to engage expert advice:-

The Planning System:

  • We understand how the planning system works and it’s complexities. We understand how developers appraise sites for development and that specialist knowledge goes a long way.

Developer Contacts:

  • We have an industry wide network of developer contacts ranging from small developers, regional  and PLC (large scale) housebuilders.  We understand what their land requirements are in the market place as we speak with them to understand their ongoing land requirements.  We are quickly able to ascertain which developers are likely to be interested in which sites.

Private Marketing of Quality Land Leads / Deals:

  • We do not market or sell quality land deals on the property portals such as Rightmvoe.co.uk.  We firmly believe that our market knowledge means that we do not need to “punt” quality land deals publicly because we already know who in the market place is likely to be interested in the sites at any time.

Land Promoters & Speculators:

  • We also work with a trusted network on Land Promoters who are able to partner with landowners to achieve planning permission on land which is not already allocated for housing development.  They will take all of the financial risk as well as provide expertise and resource to achieve planning permission on land which would otherwise not achieve planning consent.

Planning Consultants:

  • We work with the market leading planning consultants in the locality who are able to provide high quality planning advice as to whether land is likely to obtain planning permission for residential development.  We only utilise RTPI qualified consultants who know the planning system and it’s ever increasing complexities.

Land & Property Solicitors:

  • We work alongside the region’s top development land and conveyancing solicitors to ensure that land transactions are carried out as smoothly as possible, and who specialise in the sector.

Outcomes:……

  • We are motivated to obtain the best possible outcome for your land for residential development.  We only partner with quality companies, whether this is planning consultants, solicitors, or land promoters.
