Allocated and promoted land wanted in Deal
If you own allocated and promoted land in or around Deal, we would like to hear about it. We buy directly and give a free, no-obligation appraisal.
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.

Allocated and promoted land we are looking for in Deal
Around Deal, 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. In Kent, Deal sits about 38 miles east of Maidstone; Dover and Ramsgate are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Land allocated for housing in an adopted plan
- Sites submitted to a call for sites (England) or candidate site register (Wales)
- Land identified in a draft plan or housing land availability assessment
- Land in a neighbourhood plan allocation
Nutrient neutrality advice has affected the Stour catchment around Canterbury and Ashford because of the protected Stodmarsh wetlands. High Speed 1 stations and the M2, M20 and A2 corridors are a focus for growth, while coastal flood risk matters on the Thames and Swale estuaries and Romney Marsh.
Before we make an offer in Deal
Plan stage
An adopted allocation carries more weight than a draft one or a call-for-sites submission.
Allocation requirements
Allocation policies often set numbers, access, infrastructure and design expectations.
Existing agreements
Land may already be under option or promotion; we check for exclusivity.
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.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 168 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.
Choosing how to sell
Subject-to-planning contract
We agree a price now and complete once a satisfactory planning permission is granted.

Questions owners in Deal 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 Deal?
Yes. We buy allocated and promoted land in Deal and throughout Kent, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
Which planning rules apply to land in Deal?
As Deal is in England, national policy comes from the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
