The Product – Land has clearly stood the test of time in so far as being a saleable commodity which has risen steadily in value over the years. It is also in limited supply – as it is not something which can be manufactured.

Track Record – Land’s track record is without question as a highly sort after commodity, indeed the wealthiest individuals and corporations on all continents usually have substantial land holdings within their portfolios.

Timing – Now is an excellent time to become involved in land ownership. With recent announcements by the government saying that even more greenbelt land will be used to build upon, together with unfavourable investment markets – it makes sense to consider purchasing a part of the nations green asset for oneself.

Statistics over the past 30 years prove that land prices have increased faster than house prices.

Greenbelt, agricultural and forestry land is far less expensive than land which currently enjoys planning consent.

Proven concept – pre-planning purchase of green belt, agricultural and forestry land is nothing new – the large developers have been doing it for decades. Developers “stockpile” land into their own Land-Banks.

What is new however, is that we are now very proud to offer this previously hidden opportunity to the general public.

Most of the large developers handpick their sites in the same way we do, they choose their acquisitions by studying each area for the likelihood of future planning permission being granted.

Every developer knows that each town and city must grow outward and the land most available is agricultural, greenbelt and forestry. Clearly it is preferable and far more profitable to buy land prior to planning applications being submitted.

When purchasing through us, you are buying the Freehold, which means you own the land outright – after completion you receive the title deeds to your plot(s) registered in your own name.

With the increasing demand for land most experts agree that land will continue to increase in value for the foreseeable future.

Earlier we posed the question why land ?

As a now informed prospective owner, the question now must surely be – why not?

Why should I buy land without planning permission?

Land without planning is far cheaper than land with planning.

One day potentially, it may be granted planning - although there is no guarantee of this happening.

Who has the title deeds when I buy through Blenham Investments?

You do - once your transaction is complete the deeds of title will be forwarded to you, giving proof of your outright ownership.

Can I purchase more than one plot?

Yes, you can purchase as many plots as you wish - subject to availability.

What about planning consent?

No planning consent is currently available on any land offered by Blenham Investments, and prospective purchasers are made fully aware of this fact, together with the knowledge that there are no guarantees whatsoever of consent being granted at any time in the future.

What if I want to sell?

Should planning consent being granted in future years, owners will be free to sell to anyone they wish, including other owners, builders and developers etc.

If owners wish to sell prior to planning consent being even considered or granted (if at all) they may sell to other owners or anyone else wishing to purchase on a similar basis to which they did. Blenham Investments will also be happy to offer assistance in finding a buyer - although they cannot guarantee how successful they may or may not be in this endeavor.

Is Landbanking an investment?

Whilst an owner may regard his or her purchase as something that could potentially enhance their futures, the actual transaction is simply a straight forward purchase of a plot(s) of land.

Blenham Investments’ partner owns all plots offered for sale and as such ownership of plots purchased is a simple transfer of title deeds facilitated by the filing of the appropriate land registry papers.
