Small sites wanted in Pinner
We want to hear from owners of small sites in Pinner. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
Small sites are plots for roughly one to nine homes. They are quicker to plan and build than large schemes and national policy encourages councils to bring more of them forward. We buy small sites with or without planning.

What small sites we want near Pinner
In Pinner, small sites are often the leftover pieces: a side garden, an old garage block or a gap where a building once stood. In Greater London, Pinner sits about 12 miles north-west of central London; Ruislip and Harrow are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Corner plots and side gardens with road frontage
- Small fields or paddocks next to villages
- Sites where an earlier application can be improved
- Land within or touching a settlement boundary
London planning is shaped by both the London Plan and borough plans, with higher densities expected near stations and town centres. Small sites, including garden land, yards and redundant commercial premises close to Underground, Overground, Elizabeth line or national rail stations, are the most common route to new homes in the outer areas.
