Plot sales cover the sale of building plots for development, including the transfer of land with planning permission or the option to acquire and the negotiation of covenants, rights of way and infrastructure obligations. A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates contracts, conducts title checks, and coordinates with planners, surveyors and developers to ensure the plot can be sold free from unmanageable encumbrances. They also review planning conditions, addressing issues such as access, drainage and easements that affect the buildability of the plot.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
They handle options or conditional contracts, transfer deeds, and ensure title conditions, restrictive covenants and planning obligations are properly drawn and enforceable. They coordinate with local authorities, land registries and lenders, and advise on risk allocation, due diligence, and timing of the transfer to avoid post-completion disputes.
