Before You Accept That Developer Offer...
A developer calls with a tempting offer. "Quick sale, no hassle," they promise. But what if expert analysis shows your land could be worth 50-100% more as serviced building plots while creating beautiful homes that enhance your community?
The Choice That Changes Everything
You have land that could become homes. The question isn't whether to sell—it's how to sell and what gets built. The difference between these two paths isn't just financial—it's about the legacy you leave behind.
The Developer Path
"We'll buy your land." One offer, quick sale, done. But you're selling at wholesale land prices so they can create building plots and sell houses at full market prices.
The Beautiful Homes Path
Create serviced building plots for people who want to build their dream homes. Through professional development and planning permission, you capture the full retail plot value while helping create something beautiful.

Development Appraisal: The Numbers That Tell the Real Story
Here's what our assessment reveals: when a developer offers £100k per plot, they're planning to make much more. Let's break down what's really happening with your land's value. The following figures are for illustration purposes only.
What the Developer Really Makes
They offer you £100k per plot, build a standard house for £300k, then sell for £600k.
Your Value with Serviced Building Plots
Sell a serviced building plot for £250k. Self-builder creates a £700k+ custom build home.

Why Self-Build Gets Planning Permission: The Right to Build Law
Here's the secret planning advantage: the Self-build and Custom Housebuilding Act 2015 creates a legal duty on councils to provide enough self-build plots. This doesn't guarantee planning permission, but it tips the balance in your favour—especially for sites on the edge of policy like village or town boundaries. See a list of successful self-build appeals.
Councils Behind on Numbers
Most councils are behind on their self-build plot targets under the legislation. When they're short of numbers, planning is more favourable on self-build schemes to help meet their legal obligations. This creates a genuine planning advantage.
Self-Build Register Demand
Every council maintains a Self-build Register that often have big deficits of people seeking plots. This proven demand gives planning officers and apperal inspectors a strong reason to support your application—especially when the council needs more approved plots.
Edge-of-Policy Advantage
Sites on the edge of villages or towns that might be marginal for standard housing sometimes get approved for self-build. The legislation tips the balance in favour of schemes that help councils meet their plot provision duties.
The Questions Every Landowner Asks
Why wouldn't I just accept the developer's land offer?
Because expert evaluation shows you'd be accepting wholesale land prices when you could achieve retail plot values. That developer has calculated they can make £200k+ profit per plot. Why give that away when you can capture more of it yourself while creating custom build homes instead of standard boxes?
What if something goes wrong with planning?
We take that risk, not you. If planning fails, you still own your land—no loss.
How long does the whole process take?
Typically 12-24 months from start to final sales. Yes, longer than a quick developer sale. But when the financial difference is 50-100% more, and you create homes that make you proud instead of embarrassed, most landowners tell us it's the best decision they made for their land.
