Identifying land for developers

Atwell Martin specialise in identifying and advising on land suitable for development. Our Land and Development team cover individual plots through to larger Brownfield and strategic Greenfield development.

We act on behalf of national and regional house builders as well as local developers. This has enabled us to appreciate the differing site requirements and expectations of individual firms in order to maximise land potential.

Looking to sell land?

We also specialise in assisting land-owners to value their land, understand government planning policy and maximise return. In recent years there has been strong demand from both construction firms and property investment companies to add to their "land bank" and our deep links within the industry leave us ideally placed to match buyers to sellers
