Wanted in Bloxwich

Development land wanted in Bloxwich

Own land in Bloxwich that could take new homes? We buy directly, with or without planning.

In the West Midlands, Bloxwich sits about 10 miles north-west of Birmingham; Walsall and Great Wyrley are its nearest neighbours on our list. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, close to Bloxwich, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

The West Midlands county is a dense conurbation of Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Coventry, Solihull, Walsall, Dudley and the Black Country towns. Green Belt surrounds and separates parts of the conurbation, including the Meriden Gap between Birmingham and Coventry, so most housing comes from previously developed land: former industrial and canal-side sites, yards, garage courts and town centres. Grey belt and small fringe sites around Sutton Coldfield, Solihull and Aldridge can also come forward.

In England, the revised National Planning Policy Framework published on 17 August 2026 replaced the old "tilted balance" with new settlement policies: development within a settlement should normally be approved unless the harm substantially outweighs the benefits, while land outside a settlement can gain support in defined circumstances.

Parts of the West Midlands are Green Belt, though not every town has any nearby. We check early whether a site is inside it and, if so, whether a grey belt or previously developed land case could apply.
