Land with planning permission wanted in Monmouth
If you own land with planning permission in or around Monmouth, we would like to hear about it. We buy directly and give a free, no-obligation appraisal.
A site with planning permission already has the council's approval for development, so much of the planning risk has gone. If you have consent but no plans to build, or the permission is approaching its time limit, we would like to hear from you.

What land with planning permission we want near Monmouth
If you hold a consent in or near Monmouth, send us the decision notice and the approved drawings; that is usually enough for a first view. Monmouth is in Gwent, about 17 miles north-east of Cwmbran. Nearby places include Chepstow, Abergavenny and Caldicot.
- Outline permissions, full permissions and approved reserved matters
- Consents with a Section 106 agreement or Community Infrastructure Levy liability
- Sites where some pre-commencement conditions are still to be discharged
- Single plots with consent for one or two homes
Gwent covers south-east Wales, from Newport, Cwmbran and Pontypool to the valley towns of Ebbw Vale, Tredegar, Blackwood and Caerphilly and the market towns of Abergavenny, Chepstow and Monmouth. Typical sites include former industrial and colliery land, edge-of-town fields and village infill, with green wedges protecting gaps between settlements. Phosphate limits in the Usk and Wye catchments have held back housing in parts of the area, and the Gwent Levels bring flood and habitat constraints.
Before we make an offer in Monmouth
Conditions
Pre-commencement conditions, such as drainage or ecology details, must be dealt with before work can lawfully start.
Planning obligations
Section 106 contributions, affordable housing and any Community Infrastructure Levy all affect what the land is worth to a builder.
Scheme design
Some approved layouts are hard to build or sell; others can be improved with a fresh application.
Parts of Wales lie in river catchments where phosphate levels in protected rivers affect new housing, so drainage and nutrient solutions can be an early question.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 61 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Yes. Sometimes we buy on the basis of the existing permission and then seek changes through a new or amended application.
