Land acquisitions and plot sales
Expert support when land deals need careful planning
Getting involved in developing land can bring a mix of both opportunities and challenges.
We have a wealth of experience in acquiring land for development and plot sales and can assist with all phases of your development.

Land acquisitions
When acquiring land for potential development there is also a lot to take into consideration.
Planning permission, highways agreements, environmental investigations, agreements for utilities, and the commercial terms of the deal are all factors that need to be taken into account.
The Rothera Bray commercial property team have a wealth of experience in advising on land acquisitions and will work with you to ensure the land can be developed on time and within budget, giving you the maximum return on investment.
Plot sales
Plot sales are becoming more complex, with each plot now likely to be different compared to the standardised housing of previous years.
We act for house builders and developers to consider factors relating to plot sales including:
- access to the site and rights of way
- roads
- utilities and services
- planning consent
- boundaries
We can help you with drafting and preparing residential plot sale agreements, leases and transfers.
