The land with planning permission that interests us around Redcar
If you hold a consent in or near Redcar, send us the decision notice and the approved drawings; that is usually enough for a first view. Redcar lies about 24 miles north-east of Northallerton in North Yorkshire. We also cover Guisborough, Middlesbrough, Hartlepool and the villages between them.
- Outline permissions, full permissions and approved reserved matters
- Consents with a Section 106 agreement or Community Infrastructure Levy liability
- Single plots with consent for one or two homes
- Larger consented schemes where the owner does not want to build
Teesside has substantial former industrial land and regeneration areas, while flooding from the Ouse, Foss and Derwent affects York, Selby and nearby villages. The A1(M) and East Coast Main Line corridor through Northallerton and Thirsk, and the Harrogate to York rail line, attract steady interest in housing land.
Before we make an offer in Redcar
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.
Planning obligations
Section 106 contributions, affordable housing and any Community Infrastructure Levy all affect what the land is worth to a builder.
Where an English council cannot show a five-year supply of housing land, or its Housing Delivery Test result falls below 75%, the August 2026 NPPF can give policy support to suitable housing outside settlement boundaries.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 147 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Your questions answered
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.
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.
Can an agent introduce land in Redcar to you?
Yes. Estate agents, land agents and planning consultants can introduce sites with the owner's consent. Any fee is agreed in writing before details are shared, confirmed by the owner in writing and paid only on completion.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Redcar assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
