Top 10 of 3,582 law firms for Purchase of development land, Commercial Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Purchasing development land covers due diligence on title, checking planning constraints, and negotiating transfer of a site for a project. A solicitor drafts and negotiates the contract, conducts comprehensive property and planning searches, interprets title documents, and coordinates with lenders, planners, and the seller to secure a binding disposition and prerequisites such as planning consents and infrastructure obligations. The work often involves options, conditional contracts, and ensuring the land is suitable for development under relevant planning policy and zoning rules.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles due diligence on title, planning restrictions, and potential root/title defects, negotiates and finalises missives, and coordinates title transfer, funding, and any planning obligations. They manage due diligence checks, liaise with local authorities, obtain necessary consents, and address planning conditions, rights of way, and third-party rights that could affect development.

Charlie has been fantastic with guiding myself and my neighbours with a land purchase behind our houses. She offered great guidance from start to finish and her communication was fantastic. We couldn't ask for anything more. Thank you once again Charlie.

Kristine Burton

Tagged solicitor Kristine Burton

From the moment we instructed Kristine with Setfords, we knew we were in safe hands. Kristine was thorough, knowledgeable and friendly, her communication was second to none. Telephone calls were always answered, emails responded to. Kristine was extremely patient and professional, especially when dealing with the horrendous firm our buyer instructed. Queries were fully explained to us and clarifications always given when needed, we were never made to feel like an inconvenience or just one case number of many. Kristine kept us up to date throughout and provided us with assurance that, despite our buyer’s solicitors, we would get this transaction through. And so we did- thank you so much Kristine!

Helen Marshall

Tagged solicitor Helen Marshall

I’ve been using HSR Solicitors in Gainsborough for many years now, and they have consistently provided an outstanding service with every property sale and purchase I’ve done. Helen Marshall and her team are simply exceptional – their communication is always prompt and clear, and their professionalism is second to none. What really sets them apart is the depth of knowledge and advice they offer. Whether it's a straightforward sale or a more complex transaction involving bridging loans and refinancing, I’ve always felt confident and reassured that my best interests are being protected. They take the time to explain everything thoroughly and in plain English – no confusing legal jargon – which I’ve really appreciated over the years. I’ll be the first to admit I can be a bit demanding at times, but Helen and her team have always handled my queries and concerns with patience, professionalism, and a friendly approach. They’ve gone above and beyond time and time again. I’ve recommended HSR Law to friends, family, and my own clients, and I’ll continue to do so without hesitation. If you’re looking for a personable, knowledgeable, and reliable legal team, look no further than HSR Law. They are fantastic!

Mohammed Rahman

Tagged solicitor Mohammed Rahman

The sale of our land was very complicated due to it having various covenants associated with it. We had a few buyers and for various reasons the sale fell through. Mohammed was very supportive and professional throughout the whole 9 years and gave us extremely good advice. Eventually the sale did go through. Due to the buyers demands of wanting everything done immediately Mohammed pulled out all the stops to ensure the sale went through. A complicated sale was made very easy due to the professionalism of Mohammed. I can’t sing his praises enough.
