Sitting on a pot of gold?

That garden, paddock or old yard could be worth far more than you think. Find out what it could put in your pocket, in 60 seconds.

Why now? National planning rules changed in August 2026 and are now more supportive of new homes inside towns and villages. Many councils are also short of land for housing.

We use real new-build sales near you to work out your figure.

2. Roughly how much land do you have?

For scale: a tennis court is about 0.06 acres and a football pitch about 1.75 acres. Not sure? Pick the closest.

3. What are most homes like near you?

New homes usually match the street around them, so this tells us what could be built.

How we turn your land into money

Four simple steps. You don't lift a finger, and you don't pay a penny upfront.

1 · Free check

We look at your land for free: flood, heritage, access, local policy and more.

2 · We handle planning

Drawings, surveys, the application, the council. We do it all, at our cost and our risk.

3 · Builders compete

With permission granted, your land goes on the open market and builders bid against each other.

4 · You get paid

Our costs come back from the sale, then 80% of what's left is yours.

We don't buy your land cheap. We sell it for the best price.

Most developers want to buy your land for as little as possible. We work the other way: we get the planning, then sell to the highest bidder. We only earn when you do, so we both want the top price.

It's called a land promotion agreement: a well-established way for landowners to get planning permission without the cost or the risk.

Why now? National planning rules changed in August 2026 and are now more supportive of new homes inside towns and villages. Many councils are also short of land for housing.

How this estimate is worked out
  • It uses the residual method, the standard way builders value land: sale value of the homes, minus all the costs of building them, minus the builder's profit.
  • Home sizes are typical new-build sizes from the sales data: detached about 120 m², semi 85 m², terraced 80 m², bungalow 90 m². The number of homes is estimated from your land size, allowing about 80% of the land for homes and gardens and typical plot sizes for the style of home (detached about 450 m² each, semi 300 m², terraced 220 m²), up to 9 homes. Sale value comes from new-build sales near you: 135,809 new homes sold in England and Wales from 2023 to 2026 (HM Land Registry Price Paid Data), matched to their floor areas on Energy Performance Certificates. We use the median £/sq ft for your postcode district, or the wider postcode area where there are fewer than five sales. Without a postcode match, it uses the price you enter plus 10% for the new-build premium. Build cost per m² is a typical figure for the region.
  • External works (drives, drainage, services) 10% of build cost. Professional fees 8%. Finance 4% of costs. An allowance of £5,000 a home for council levies and biodiversity requirements. Sales costs 2.5% of sale value.
  • The "from" figure assumes a 17.5% builder's profit. The top of the range assumes 15% profit and build costs 5% lower, which is typical for small sites and self-builders.
  • Property type adjusts the sale value and build cost from a semi-detached baseline: detached +3% value, bungalow +10% value and +10% build cost (larger footprint and roof). Where local sales data exists, each type uses its own local £/sq ft instead.
  • Your share is 80% of the sale price, before our planning costs are recovered. Those costs depend on the site and are agreed with you upfront.
  • It doesn't account for your specific site: access, ground conditions, local policy, trees or wildlife can all move the number. Some sites can't get planning permission at all.
