Allocated and promoted land wanted in Bushey
We want to hear from owners of allocated and promoted land in Bushey. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
Allocated land is identified for development in an adopted local plan (England) or Local Development Plan (Wales). Promoted land has been put forward through a call for sites or candidate site process. Both are strong signals of potential, and we buy or take options on such land.

Is your land in Bushey the kind we want?
Around Bushey, allocated sites and land put forward to the council are usually the furthest along, so they can often move faster than land at an earlier stage. Bushey is in Hertfordshire, about 16 miles south-west of Hertford. Nearby places include Watford, Pinner and Borehamwood.

Hertfordshire is a county of medium-sized towns, including Watford, Hemel Hempstead, Stevenage, St Albans, Welwyn Garden City, Hatfield and Hitchin, with many villages between them. Most of the county lies within the Metropolitan Green Belt and the Chilterns National Landscape covers the west, so grey belt, previously developed land and infill sites are especially important. Larger growth is usually planned as urban extensions and new communities through local plans.
Before we make an offer in Bushey
Plan stage
An adopted allocation carries more weight than a draft one or a call-for-sites submission.
Existing agreements
Land may already be under option or promotion; we check for exclusivity.
Shared allocations
Where several owners hold one allocation, collaboration and equalisation matter.
Where an English council cannot show a five-year supply of housing land, or its Housing Delivery Test result falls below 75%, the August 2026 NPPF can give policy support to suitable housing outside settlement boundaries.
Parts of Hertfordshire 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.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 91 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Questions owners in Bushey ask
My land is in a call for sites. Does that mean it will be allocated?
No. A submission only means the council will assess it. Good technical evidence and a clear access plan improve the chances.
My land was under an option that expired. Can you take over?
Yes, if the earlier agreement has properly ended. We will want to see it to confirm there is no continuing exclusivity.
Do you buy allocated and promoted land in Bushey?
Yes. We buy allocated and promoted land in Bushey and throughout Hertfordshire, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
Is Bushey too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 91 miles from Bushey, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
