Brownfield land wanted in West Bromwich
We want to hear from owners of brownfield land in West Bromwich. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
If your land has buildings, hardstanding or a past industrial use, it is likely to count as brownfield. Reusing these sites is a planning priority, and we are buyers for yards, depots and cleared plots across England and Wales.

Is your land in West Bromwich the kind we want?
Brownfield land in West Bromwich tends to be well located for homes; the questions are usually about contamination, demolition and neighbours. In the West Midlands, West Bromwich sits about 5 miles north-west of Birmingham; Smethwick and Wednesbury are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Former industrial, commercial or depot sites
- Cleared sites and land with hardstanding
- Sites on a brownfield land register (England) or similar
- Sites with known contamination where the history is documented
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.
Checks we make on brownfield land in West Bromwich
Demolition and ground
Old foundations, tanks and services add cost, so we allow for them in our appraisal.
Neighbouring uses
Noise or smells from neighbouring businesses can affect whether homes are acceptable.
Employment land policy
Some councils protect employment land; we check whether a change to housing would be resisted.
Since 6 August 2026, non-major development on sites of 0.2 hectares or less in England has generally been exempt from mandatory biodiversity net gain, unless priority habitat is affected. That makes many small sites simpler to bring forward.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, close to West Bromwich, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.
