Have you inherited land and are unsure what to do next?

Inheriting land or a property with development potential can be both an opportunity and a challenge.

You may not have the time, experience, or financial resources to explore planning permission, and without expert guidance, it’s easy to sell for less than its true worth. But before making any decisions, it’s important to understand what’s possible—and that’s where WKB can help.

 

We help you maximise the value of inherited land

Inheriting land can be a life-changing asset, but many landowners don’t realise its full potential. Without proper guidance, it’s easy to sell too quickly, miss out on significant value, or become overwhelmed by the complexities of planning permission.

Before making any decisions, it’s crucial to explore all your options—because the right choice could mean a far greater financial return.

How we help landowners

Unlike traditional estate agents or developers, we take on the entire planning process for you, ensuring you maximise your land’s value without any financial risk.

We handle everything from initial feasibility assessments to securing planning approval and finding the right buyer.

Here’s how we do it:

  • Site assessment and feasibility

  • Planning applications and negotiations

  • Overcoming council objections

  • Marketing and selling the land once approved

Why we don't charge upfront fees

We cover all the costs associated with planning, including surveys, consultants, legal work, and application fees. You don’t pay a thing upfront. Our funding structure removes financial risk while keeping your capital free for future investments.

By removing upfront costs, we ensure that the process is risk-free for you, allowing you to move forward with confidence, knowing that we’re fully invested in delivering results. This approach reflects our commitment to providing exceptional service and achieving the best possible outcomes for every client, without the financial burden of initial fees.

A simple, secure way to maximise your land investment

We make investing in land hassle-free—no risk, no hidden costs. We handle everything from planning to legal paperwork so you don’t have to. Once planning permission is secured, we can help you find a buyer or a developer—ensuring you get paid without the stress.

Valuation

We agree a price with you for your land.

From the outset, you'll have complete clarity on what we’re offering for your land.

Throughout the process, you remain the legal owner until we secure planning permission.

Planning

We do the planning work.

We take care of everything for you. From the initial drawings and planning applications to legal checks and ensuring all regulatory requirements are met.

We cover all costs, meaning you don’t pay a thing until your land is ready for sale or development.

Payment

When planning is approved, we pay you.

Once planning permission is granted, we will pay you the full amount we agreed at the beginning.

You get your money at that point — either from us directly or from the developer we sell it to.
