Selling Land?

 When selling land you can work with Prime Land Consultants to maximize your site’s development potential. We work with landowners with potential development land in 2 ways:

1. We have investors who will fund a purchase conditional on site investigation only, through to clients who will purchase subject to obtaining full planning approval. All take different views on planning risks – see our current land requirements below.

Are you a property professional acting for a landowner client?

If you own a ransom strip or your land could be affected by a potential ransom strip, please contact Tom Rankin for advice.

2. As Chartered Surveyors we are also instructed to sell development land. In these land sales, we will conduct a full audit, checking the history of any planning applications and any issues such as access, then:

• Prepare marketing brochures; this typically involves an information gathering exercise to address issues such as access rights and titles.
• Either go to market by advertising the development opportunity, or contact potential buyers directly, off-market from our database of contacts.
• Communicate with potential purchasers to answer queries.
• Proceed to a closing date or negotiate the sale. Then evaluate the offers received.
• Liaise with the vendor’s solicitor and appoint a purchaser.
• Scrutinise the results of any site investigations.
• Monitor the progress of planning applications and other required consents.
• Advise on any abnormal deductions such as servicing costs

In most cases, landowners need to address constraints prior to a disposal, and we therefore offer a project management service to find solutions to these critical issues.
