Building Land

UK Building Land

Although many plots are sold privately, thousands are found each year through determination and research. There are the usual sources for plots - Estate Agents, Auction Houses Local Authorities and Surveyors - but there are the more innovative choices - Railtrack, the Forestry Commission, Church Bodies, Utility Companies and many others.
Newspapers also contain plot sales or you could advertise yourself, as well as making local enquiries. Those who have found land accept that it takes time and patience and in some Counties it is far more difficult to locate land than in others.
		Plotsearch does everything we suggest and more. It provides access to the National Building Plot Register whose dedicated and pro-active staff contact well over 5,000 different contributors who provide details of land for the database. Specialist data-mining companies such as ABI and Glenigans trawl the planning records nationwide for applications for the building of individual houses. Plotsearch also seeks this information on future plots for its subscribers.
Plotsearch is a subscription based service and an essential for those looking for land.

What I have tried to show you with these pictures is that when you initially visit a building plot it is usually overgrown, scattered with rubbish, wet and muddy. You have to have vision, to picture that piece of building land with a beautiful house nestling in the middle of a perfectly manicured garden.
These pictures are taken from about the same spot but with a couple of years in between.
		So the advice for finding a building plot of land is to be determined. Your piece of land will be out there somewhere but may be quite difficult to find. This building plot above was the land I took about 10 years to find. There are now 3 houses on this plot, when it was purchased there was planning permission for 2 houses. So join Plotsearch and find your land.
