Land with planning permission wanted in Basingstoke
If you own land with planning permission in or around Basingstoke, we would like to hear about it. We buy directly and give a free, no-obligation appraisal.

The land with planning permission that interests us around Basingstoke
We are interested in sites with planning across the Basingstoke area, including smaller consents that larger housebuilders may pass over. In Hampshire, Basingstoke sits about 17 miles north-east of Winchester; Tadley and Alton are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Outline permissions, full permissions and approved reserved matters
- Permissions that are close to their time limit to start work
- Single plots with consent for one or two homes
- Larger consented schemes where the owner does not want to build
Nutrient neutrality advice has applied across much of south Hampshire because of the Solent's protected habitats, and coastal schemes contribute to recreation mitigation for overwintering birds. The M3 and M27 corridors carry most planned growth, with smaller sites in market towns such as Alton, Andover and Romsey.
Before we make an offer in Basingstoke
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.
The Planning and Infrastructure Act 2025 introduced Environmental Delivery Plans and a Nature Restoration Levy in England, which over time may offer an alternative to site-by-site mitigation for some environmental issues.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 95 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.
