Redundant buildings wanted in Epsom
We want to hear from owners of redundant buildings in Epsom. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
A redundant building is one whose original use has ended. Many make good homes through conversion, while others are better redeveloped. We look at the building, its planning position and any community or heritage interest before making an offer.

Redundant buildings we are looking for in Epsom
Redundant buildings in Epsom often sit in the heart of things, close to shops and transport, which can make them strong residential sites. Epsom lies about 15 miles north-east of Guildford in Surrey. We also cover Ewell, Chessington, Banstead and the villages between them.
- Shops with upper floors or whole retail buildings
- Former pubs, halls, chapels and churches
- Buildings with or without existing consent
- Sites where demolition and rebuilding may be better than conversion
Heathland protection in the west of the county means many schemes contribute to mitigation for the Thames Basin Heaths, and flood risk from the Thames and Mole affects riverside towns. Stations on the lines into Waterloo and Victoria matter, as English planning policy now gives weight to locations near well-connected stations.
Before we make an offer in Epsom
Community value
Pubs and community buildings may be listed as assets of community value or protected by policy.
Prior approval (England)
Some changes of use can be made through permitted development with prior approval.
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.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 109 miles from Epsom, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Frequently asked in Surrey
Can a former pub be converted to homes?
Sometimes. Pubs are often protected by local policy, and the August 2026 NPPF aims to avoid loss of valued community facilities, so evidence about viability and need matters.
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.
Do you buy redundant buildings in Epsom?
Yes. We buy redundant buildings in Epsom 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.
Can an agent introduce land in Epsom 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.
