We Buy Land & Sites What We Buy
Our buying criteria

What land, sites and businesses do we buy?

We consider a wide range of land, development opportunities, commercial sites and operational businesses where the property, buildings or future potential form an important part of the value.

More than a conventional land buyer

We consider the land, the property and the opportunity behind it.

Selling land or a specialist property is rarely as simple as choosing a category from a list. A site may contain several buildings, an operating business, existing planning permission, unused development potential or a combination of different uses.

We Buy Land & Sites considers the complete opportunity. This may include undeveloped land, rural property, commercial premises, leisure businesses, industrial sites and businesses where the freehold property is central to the sale.

Initial enquiries can be made confidentially and without committing you to a sale.

What we assess

The complete opportunity matters

A property does not need to be vacant, fully developed or free from complications before you contact us.

Location and access We consider where the property is located and how it can currently be accessed.
Current and previous use Existing operations, historic uses and vacant periods can all influence the opportunity.
Planning and development position This can include existing permission, previous applications, allocation or possible alternative uses.
Land, buildings and infrastructure We review the complete physical property rather than focusing only on the acreage.
The operating business Where relevant, the current trading operation can be considered alongside the property.
Complex enquiries welcome

Do not assume a complication makes your property unsuitable.

Land and commercial property often come with issues that make a conventional sale more difficult. This does not automatically mean that the opportunity cannot be considered.

Provide the information you currently have and explain the situation honestly. An initial discussion can then establish whether it is appropriate to explore the opportunity further.

Common questions

What should you know before making an enquiry?

Does my land need planning permission?

No. We consider land with planning permission, land without permission and sites with possible longer-term development potential.

Do you only buy vacant land?

No. We also consider operational commercial sites, rural businesses and property-backed businesses.

Can I enquire confidentially?

Yes. Initial discussions can remain private, particularly where employees, tenants, customers or neighbouring owners are unaware of a possible sale.

Is there a minimum amount of land?

There is no single minimum size. Individual plots, smaller sites and larger landholdings can all be considered.

Can a business be included in the sale?

Yes. Where the property and operating business are closely connected, both elements can be considered together.

What information should I have ready?

The location, approximate size, current use and a brief description are usually enough to begin an initial conversation.

Unsure whether your land, site or business is suitable?

Start with a private, no-obligation discussion. Tell us what you own, where it is located and any relevant details about its current use or future potential.
