Land with planning permission wanted in Faversham
We want to hear from owners of land with planning permission in Faversham. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
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.

Is your land in Faversham the kind we want?
If you hold a consent in or near Faversham, send us the decision notice and the approved drawings; that is usually enough for a first view. Faversham lies about 16 miles east of Maidstone in Kent. We also cover Whitstable, Sittingbourne, Canterbury and the villages between them.
- Outline permissions, full permissions and approved reserved matters
- Permissions that are close to their time limit to start work
- Sites where some pre-commencement conditions are still to be discharged
- Larger consented schemes where the owner does not want to build
Kent ranges from the Medway towns, Dartford and Gravesend on the Thames to Maidstone, Ashford, Canterbury, Tunbridge Wells and the coastal towns of Margate, Ramsgate, Folkestone and Dover. West Kent is largely Metropolitan Green Belt, while the Kent Downs and High Weald National Landscapes cover much of the countryside. Sites typically include edge-of-town fields, orchards and farmland, farm buildings, infill plots and brownfield land in the towns.
Before we make an offer in Faversham
Time limit
Permissions normally have to be started within a set period, so the date the consent expires matters a great deal.
Conditions
Pre-commencement conditions, such as drainage or ecology details, must be dealt with before work can lawfully start.
Scheme design
Some approved layouts are hard to build or sell; others can be improved with a fresh application.
In England, the revised National Planning Policy Framework published on 17 August 2026 replaced the old "tilted balance" with new settlement policies: development within a settlement should normally be approved unless the harm substantially outweighs the benefits, while land outside a settlement can gain support in defined circumstances.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 146 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Frequently asked in Kent
Do I need to discharge the conditions before selling?
No. Many sites are sold with conditions still outstanding. We look at what is left to do and allow for it.
Can you buy if the approved scheme is not one you would build?
Yes. Sometimes we buy on the basis of the existing permission and then seek changes through a new or amended application.
Is Faversham too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 146 miles from Faversham, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Faversham assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
