A Guide to Site Finding
‘Because it can be so profitable, if it is easy, everyone would do it – that’s where the art comes in.’ - Dan Mitchell, Planning Partner, Barton Willmore
Simple truths:
- Without a site no development can take place
- Land has the value its use creates
- What can be developed depends on planning regulation and latest policy
- Working out whether the development site will be permitted permission is time-consuming and costly
- Profits are generated by identifying opportunities – once found the value of the opportunity should be maximised
An on-demand series of briefings chaired by Dan Mitchell, Planning Partner, Barton Willmore, with key contributions from other, front line, experts who will bring all the important elements together.
The aim: to focus on the art of site finding and on buying land with development potential.
Covering: ‘how to do it’ analysis, the important points to consider during the land acquisition, understanding the planning process, option agreements, conditional contracts and everything in-between. In short, all that determines whether value is generated and, if so, how much.
