Why Selling to Self-Builders Pays More
Traditional developers squeeze margins at every stage. Self-builders cut out the middleman, creating value that benefits everyone.
Where the Value Goes
Traditional Developer Route100% of home value

Landowner receives ~20% of final value
Self-Build Route100% of home value

Fees
Landowner receives ~35% of final value
Result: Self-build route typically delivers 50-100% higher land value
No Developer Profit Margin
Developers typically take 20-25% profit on the total scheme value. With self-build, this margin doesn't exist—the value stays with landowners and self-builders.
Premium Plot Prices
Self-builders willingly pay 10-20% more for serviced plots because they save money overall by controlling their own build specification and contractors.
Strong Self-Builder Demand
Over 53,000 people are registered on council self-build registers across England. Demand for serviced plots far outstrips supply, keeping prices strong.
Lower Risk Sales
Self-builders often buy plots with mortgages or cash, making transactions more reliable. Developer deals can collapse due to funding issues or market changes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is the assessment?
Our tool provides a good initial indication based on available data and planning policies. However, every site is unique, and professional advice is recommended for detailed analysis. Think of it as a helpful first step rather than a definitive answer.
What information do I need to provide?
Just basic details about your land: location, approximate size, current use, access arrangements, and your development goals. No technical knowledge required—if you own or are considering buying the land, you'll know enough to complete the assessment.
Is my information kept private?
Yes, absolutely. We only use your information to provide the assessment and any follow-up services you request. We never share personal details with third parties without your explicit consent.
What happens after I complete the assessment?
You'll receive immediate results on screen, plus the option to download a summary report. If you'd like to discuss the findings or explore next steps, we can arrange a brief consultation call—but there's no pressure or obligation.
Can my land actually get planning permission for homes?
Every site is different, but our comprehensive assessment process has helped landowners secure permission for sites that seemed challenging initially. We start with comprehensive feasibility assessment including planning policy analysis.
