Property Professionals

Are you handling off market development land for your clients? We have requirements from housebuilders, care home operators, developers and retirement village operators. 

Are you a Land Development Agent, Planning Consultant or Architect?

As a property professional, you may be handling land with development potential in various capacities, from advising on planning issues to land and property sales which have recently fallen through.

Prime Land can help by bringing purchasers to the table. So, we are keen to build more contacts with property professionals across the UK, and particularly in England:

  • Retained commercial property agents and chartered surveyors
  • Land agents and estate agents
  • Planning consultants
  • Architects
  • Environmental consultants
  • Planning and development surveyors
  • Auctioneers
  • Receivers and administrators
  • Semi-retired property professionals

Commercial Agents: you may have off-market sites that you are handling. In urban areas we are looking to acquire infill sites, edge of settlement land and big industrial/logistics sites. See Land Required.

Planning Consultants: you may be working on master plan sites where advice can be given on the range of Senior Living operators appropriate for the location.

Land Agents: you probably have clients who are landowners and farmers with short term and strategic development land with valuable potential. Prime Land Consultants have a range of clients, from those which will buy land unconditionally, to those who will take a different view on risk and take on promotion agreements. See Land Required.

Estate Agents: you may be selling a property with significant land holdings or building plots. In an urban area this can be a relatively small plot of an acre suitable for a care facility. See Senior Living.

Auctioneers: there may be land on your database which has not sold at auction for various reasons. We have cash buyers. See Land Required.

Prime Land Consultants' clients are housebuilders, care home and retirement village operators, warehouse and logistics developers, property developers and investors.

Through our extensive network of valuable contacts, we identify off-market development opportunities, which have not been advertised.

We are constantly on the look-out for valuable, development land which may be owned by farmers and private landowners. These development opportunities can be introduced to retirement living operators, housebuilders and mixed-use developers.

We also approach property agents, architects and receivers for development sites. See Our Clients.
