Land Types We Seek

We are specifically looking for land suitable for the following:
 

Affordable Housing: Land for Housing Association or Registered Social Landlord schemes, often in low-value or policy-preferred areas for affordable homes. These could be brownfield sites or land on the edge of settlements, suitable for 30 to 150 homes, mainly houses.

​

Open Market Sale: Land in desirable suburbs, towns, and villages with strong demand for small, luxury home developments.

​

Build-to-Rent: Land in the Midlands area for build-to-rent projects of 5 to 40 units, including houses, flats, or a mix

Expertise and Assurance

Landowners and agents can trust that we have the knowledge, experience, and financial resources to successfully deliver on sites we are looking to acquire.

​

Brownfield Land: Sites previously used for commercial purposes, which the UK government prioritises for development. These sites often require expert negotiation to optimise planning outcomes.

 

Affordable Housing: With a high demand for affordable housing, Key Developments specialises in securing planning permission for such developments, working alongside Housing Associations.

 

Barn Conversions: We provide planning and conversion expertise for transforming farm buildings into homes.

​

Retirement Flats: Central locations are ideal for retirement flats due to increasing demand.

​

Large Rear Gardens: Large gardens may offer potential for new homes without impacting the existing property. We can assist with planning and any negotiations with neighbours if necessary.

​

Sites with Planning Permission: We are interested in acquiring land with planning permission and are prepared to purchase unconditionally for the right projects.
