Redundant buildings wanted in Exmouth

We want to hear from owners of redundant buildings in Exmouth. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.

Redundant buildings are empty or underused buildings, such as offices, shops, pubs, chapels or halls, that could be converted or replaced with homes. We assess both conversion and redevelopment and buy suitable buildings across England and Wales.

Redundant buildings we are looking for in Exmouth

Redundant buildings in Exmouth often sit in the heart of things, close to shops and transport, which can make them strong residential sites. Exmouth lies about 9 miles south-east of Exeter in Devon. We also cover Exeter, Newton Abbot, Torquay and the villages between them.

  • Vacant offices and commercial buildings
  • Former pubs, halls, chapels and churches
  • Buildings within towns and villages
  • Sites where demolition and rebuilding may be better than conversion

The A30, A38 and M5 corridors and the main line from Exeter to Plymouth carry most of Devon's planned growth, including new communities east of Exeter. In coastal towns, flood risk and coastal change can affect sites, while nutrient neutrality advice has applied in the River Axe catchment on the Dorset border.

Before we make an offer in Exmouth

Community value

Pubs and community buildings may be listed as assets of community value or protected by policy.

Heritage

Listed buildings and conservation areas need careful design and extra consents.

Building condition

Structure, layout and light decide whether conversion makes sense.

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.

Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 148 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Questions owners in Exmouth ask

My building is listed. Is that a problem?

Not necessarily, but it means listed building consent as well as planning permission, and design must respect the building's significance.

Should I strip out the building before selling?

No. Leave it as it is and tell us about its condition; we will assess it as found.

Yes. We buy redundant buildings in Exmouth and throughout Devon, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.

Can an agent introduce land in Exmouth 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.
