Allocated and promoted land wanted in Melton Mowbray
We want to hear from owners of allocated and promoted land in Melton Mowbray. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
If your land is allocated in a plan, or you have submitted it to a call for sites, the council has already started considering it for development. We can buy allocated land or take it forward through promotion and an application.

Is your land in Melton Mowbray the kind we want?
If your land near Melton Mowbray appears in the council's plan or its site assessments, send us the reference; it changes the conversation. Melton Mowbray lies about 14 miles north-east of Leicester in Leicestershire. We also cover Oakham, Mountsorrel, Loughborough and the villages between them.
- Sites submitted to a call for sites (England) or candidate site register (Wales)
- Land identified in a draft plan or housing land availability assessment
- Sites where the current promoter's agreement has ended
- Land in a neighbourhood plan allocation
The M1, M69 and Midland Main Line corridors carry most growth, with urban extensions around Leicester and Loughborough. In the north-west, nutrient advice for the River Mease has affected schemes, and much of the area near Coalville is former coalfield, so mining risk checks can apply.
Before we make an offer in Melton Mowbray
Plan stage
An adopted allocation carries more weight than a draft one or a call-for-sites submission.
Shared allocations
Where several owners hold one allocation, collaboration and equalisation matter.
Evidence base
Councils expect technical evidence on deliverability.
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.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 45 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Your questions answered
Is there an equivalent of a call for sites in Wales?
Yes. Welsh councils run candidate site stages when preparing or reviewing their Local Development Plans.
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.
Can an agent introduce land in Melton Mowbray to you?
Yes. Estate agents, land agents and planning consultants can introduce sites with the owner's consent. Any fee is agreed in writing before details are shared, confirmed by the owner in writing and paid only on completion.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Melton Mowbray assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
