Land with planning permission we are looking for in Prestatyn
If you hold a consent in or near Prestatyn, send us the decision notice and the approved drawings; that is usually enough for a first view. Prestatyn lies about 16 miles north-west of Mold in Clwyd. We also cover Rhyl, Abergele, Holywell and the villages between them.
- Permissions that are close to their time limit to start work
- Consents with a Section 106 agreement or Community Infrastructure Levy liability
- Sites where some pre-commencement conditions are still to be discharged
- Larger consented schemes where the owner does not want to build
Clwyd covers north-east Wales, from Wrexham, Deeside, Buckley, Mold and Flint to the coastal towns of Rhyl, Prestatyn, Colwyn Bay and Llandudno and the market towns of the Vale of Clwyd. Typical sites include edge-of-town fields, former industrial land around Deeside and Wrexham, farm buildings and village infill. There is no grey belt in Wales, but Future Wales anticipates a green belt around Wrexham and Deeside, and the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley National Landscape is a major constraint.
Before we make an offer in Prestatyn
Time limit
Permissions normally have to be started within a set period, so the date the consent expires matters a great deal.
Scheme design
Some approved layouts are hard to build or sell; others can be improved with a fresh application.
Title and access
Consent does not cure title problems, so rights of access and covenants still need checking.
Flood risk in Wales is assessed under Technical Advice Note 15 and the Flood Map for Planning, which can be decisive for land near rivers and the coast.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 83 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Frequently asked in Clwyd
My permission expires soon. Is it too late?
Not necessarily. Depending on the time left and the conditions, it may be possible to make a lawful start, apply again or vary the scheme. Tell us the expiry date as soon as you can.
Will the Section 106 obligations transfer to the buyer?
Planning obligations usually run with the land, so they bind whoever owns it. We review them as part of our due diligence.
Is Prestatyn too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 83 miles from Prestatyn, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Prestatyn assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
