Is your land in Ystradgynlais the kind we want?
Plenty of land around Ystradgynlais has never had permission. What we look for first is whether new homes would fit with the existing pattern of the place. In Powys, Ystradgynlais sits about 35 miles south-west of Llandrindod Wells; Ystalyfera and Neath are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Fields and paddocks next to existing settlements
- Land the owner has put forward to a Local Development Plan candidate site process
- Plots within towns and villages that have never been built on
- Land where a previous application was refused for reasons that could be overcome
Most new homes are planned in the market towns and larger villages, with smaller sites, farm buildings and infill plots in rural communities. Flood risk under TAN 15 in the Severn and Wye valleys, and the Cambrian Line and Heart of Wales Line rail corridors, also influence where development is supported.
What usually makes or breaks it
Policy direction
National and local policy decides how a fresh application would be judged, so we read both before advising.
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.
Access and highways
Without a safe access, even well-located land is unlikely to get consent.
Parts of Wales lie in river catchments where phosphate levels in protected rivers affect new housing, so drainage and nutrient solutions can be an early question.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 94 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land 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.
Do you buy land with no planning outright?
Sometimes. If we are confident about the planning route we can buy outright, which gives you certainty sooner but reflects the risk we take on.
Do you buy land without planning permission in Ystradgynlais?
Yes. We buy land without planning permission in Ystradgynlais and throughout Powys, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
Is Ystradgynlais too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 94 miles from Ystradgynlais, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
