Frequently asked in Staffordshire

There is no fixed figure; it depends on the street. A plot that allows a home similar in width to its neighbours, with space to the sides, is a good start.
Can I sell a plot next to my own house?
Often, yes. We make sure access, boundaries and services are set out so your own home is protected.
How quickly can you look at a site in Stoke-on-Trent?
For most sites we can give an initial view once we have the location and a plan. Detailed checks follow if the land looks suitable.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Stoke-on-Trent assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
