Commercial and industrial sites wanted in Chepstow
If you own commercial and industrial sites in or around Chepstow, we would like to hear about it. We buy directly and give a free, no-obligation appraisal.
Commercial and industrial sites can sometimes be redeveloped for housing, particularly when they sit among homes or are no longer needed for business. We assess whether a change to residential is realistic and buy suitable sites across England and Wales.

Commercial and industrial sites we are looking for in Chepstow
We look at yards and units across Chepstow where the business use has run its course or the site sits awkwardly among houses. Chepstow lies about 15 miles east of Cwmbran in Gwent. We also cover Caldicot, Monmouth, Caerleon and the villages between them.
- Industrial units and yards within residential areas
- Commercial land that is vacant or underused
- Sites with tenants on short leases or approaching breaks
- Garage, workshop and showroom sites
Newport's adopted Local Development Plan designates a green belt between Newport and Cardiff, and Future Wales anticipates a wider green belt for south-east Wales once a regional plan sets its boundary. Newport and Cwmbran see the strongest demand, while Bannau Brycheiniog National Park and the Wye Valley National Landscape cover northern and eastern parts of the area.
What decides whether a site in Chepstow works
Employment land protection
Councils often protect business land; evidence of marketing or lack of demand can matter.
Leases
Tenancies and their protection affect when the site can be redeveloped.
Contamination
Past industrial uses usually need investigation.
In Wales a planning permission usually lasts five years before work must begin, and land purchases are subject to Land Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty Land Tax.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 71 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Questions owners in Chepstow ask
My units are still let. Can you buy?
Yes, in many cases. We look at the leases and break dates and can plan a purchase around them.
Do I need to market the site first?
Not to sell to us. Marketing evidence can, however, support a planning case for change of use.
Which planning rules apply to land in Chepstow?
As Chepstow is in Wales, national policy comes from Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Chepstow assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
