Land with planning permission wanted in Reigate
If you own land with planning permission in or around Reigate, 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 Reigate
We are interested in sites with planning across the Reigate area, including smaller consents that larger housebuilders may pass over. Sitting about 16 miles east of Guildford, Reigate is within Surrey, with Redhill and Horley close by.
- 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
- Single plots with consent for one or two homes
Surrey is a county of commuter towns, including Woking, Guildford, Epsom, Reigate, Redhill, Camberley, Staines-upon-Thames and Farnham, and many villages. Most of the county is Metropolitan Green Belt, and the Surrey Hills and High Weald National Landscapes cover much of the south. Previously developed land, infill plots, garden and backland sites and grey belt are therefore central to housing supply, with larger sites usually allocated through local plans.
Checks we make on land with planning permission in Reigate
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.
Title and access
Consent does not cure title problems, so rights of access and covenants still need checking.
Since 6 August 2026, non-major development on sites of 0.2 hectares or less in England has generally been exempt from mandatory biodiversity net gain, unless priority habitat is affected. That makes many small sites simpler to bring forward.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 116 miles from Reigate, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Frequently asked in Surrey
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.
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.

Yes. We buy land with planning permission in Reigate and throughout Surrey, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
Is Reigate too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 116 miles from Reigate, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
