The land without planning permission that interests us around Hayling Island
For land on the edges of Hayling Island with no consent yet, the first questions are access, flood risk and how the council's current plan treats the area. In Hampshire, Hayling Island sits about 25 miles south-east of Winchester; Emsworth and Havant are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Fields and paddocks next to existing settlements
- Land the owner has put forward to a local plan or call for sites
- Plots within towns and villages that have never been built on
- Land of any size, including single plots
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 Hayling Island
Who pays for planning
Applications, surveys and reports cost money; on conditional and option deals we normally pay for them up front, and any costs deducted from the price are agreed and capped.
Timescale
Getting permission can take months or years; we are honest about that from the start.
Your involvement
You can sell now, sell subject to planning, or grant an option; each asks a different amount of you.
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.
Some land in Hampshire is designated Green Belt. If your land is within it, it may still qualify as grey belt or previously developed land under national policy, subject to the Golden Rules.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 128 miles from Hayling Island, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Your questions answered
Who pays for the planning application?
On a subject-to-planning contract or an option agreement, we normally pay for the application and the reports that go with it. Under an option, agreed costs may later be deducted from the price; any deduction is capped and set out in the heads of terms.
What if planning is refused?
That depends on the deal. Under a conditional contract we can usually decide whether to appeal, re-apply or walk away; if we walk away you keep your land.
