Land with detailed planning permission....

[Ultraviolet]

All

I'm looking for some land with detailed planning permission (residential) around Sussex / East Kent...?

Done the searches etc. but wondered if anyone out there had personal experience or can provide any advice...

thanks

It will be expensive.

Are you plannign a self build? If so, the self build magazines have people advertising land. I'd also be going round the estate agents etc. in the areas you are interested in because they often have knowledge of land which COULD be for sale.

Also bear in mind you CAN purchase land which has no PP subject to getting PP etc.. because you need not own the land to seek PP on it.

If you are looking for development sites (not self build; more than 2 units) then I'd suggest you buy the Estates Gazette, comes out weekly and has plenty of adverts of land for sale.

I'd also speak to some of the big property agents (DTZ, King Sturge, Drivers Jonas, CBRE, Savills in London and ask for their residential team).

Or you can pm me if you want and I'll do it for you. I'm in this game....

If it comes with detailed planning permission, then it will be exploited to give maximum gain to the seller, in other words, bu99er all in the way of garden!

I know, because we looked at doing this 10 years ago. I was shocked at how little land came with the plot.

If I was looking again, I would try and buy a run down old house on a decent size plot and redevelop it myself. Cost more, obviously, but worth it.
