Frequently asked questions

Can I buy land and build a house in the UK?

It is certainly possible, but buying a plot of land and building on it will mean obtaining planning permission from your local authority before beginning construction. Our land and new homes expert will be able to advise you on whether the site is suitable, deal with the planning process on your behalf, and can put you in touch with the right experts at every stage.

Where are most new homes being built in the UK?

The South East, East of England, and the Midlands see the highest volume of new build completions, with London still one of the most active development markets. For site-specific information about where new homes are being built or planned, speak to a local land and new homes agent who monitors activity at a street-by-street level.
