We have finances in place to purchase your property immediately, which means you avoid the risk of your sale to falling through. In order to purchase your property quickly without any stress to you we offer to:
- Pay your solicitors fees; and

If you do not require a quick sale, we recommend that you use an estate agent and sell your property in a traditional manner.
If however you need to sell your property fast, we are able to help you if:

Development Properties & Land Sites Required
Brett and Associates have many years experience as property developers. Our developments range from large residential new build projects to refurbishment schemes that may be large or relatively modest.
We aim to provide homes of outstanding quality to let or sell to first time buyers, families and retirees and are currently looking for more building land. We would like to hear from people with any type of potential building plot or a property with potential to develop.
We will make an offer and exchange contracts on the condition that we obtain planning permission or consent for alternative uses.
We have finances in place to purchase your property or land plot immediately. We offer to:
- Pay your solicitors fees;
- Architects fees; and
- Planning application fees regardless of whether planning approval is granted.
Other advantages of selling your property privately to us include:
- Unlocking equity in your land or property
- No estate agent fees; and
- A fast track, chain free sale.
We are interested in:
Garden Plots: with or without planning permission. People with large gardens are selling them to us. Our demand for building land has never been stronger. A freeholder with a substantial plot of land could be sitting on a substantial pot of money. Even better news is that any garden gains escape the taxman. If the land is part of your 'principal private residence' and is not used for agricultural or business purposes, its sale is free of tax. Cashing in on garden plots without actually moving has become an increasingly popular option, particularly for the newly-retired, who have tired of gardening but remain attached to their home. One lucky homeowner in Banstead, Surrey, has just discovered that his three-acre garden is worth £1.2 million as a building plot for three new houses - more than the value of his house, garden and everything else put together without planning permission. His house itself will drop in value from £900,000 to £700,000, says Jonathan Beach of FPD Savills. But he will make a profit of £1 million. As a rule of thumb, we expect to pay one third of the value of the finished development for a plot. So, if a £150,000 house can be built to the rear of your house, you should think in terms of receiving £50,000. | ||
| ||
Pre fabricated homes: of non standard construction such as Pre cast reinforced concrete homes, known as PRC houses such as Wates Built and Aireys. | ||
Joint Ventures: A Joint Venture is a particularly effective strategy for sites where the development scenario is uncertain. The risks are essentially removed and best value is achieved. The landowner is further able to benefit from the technical expertise of the chosen developer together with their access to development funding. | ||
Marriage values: Is the value which the merger of two or more interests in land would release. For example one garden plot may not be big enough to develop therefore has no development value if however two garden plots of different owners are merged to provide a sufficient plot to build upon, both owners are able to share the profit of the sale subject to obtaining planning permission. It may well pay you to co-ordinate the sale of your back garden with those of other residents if they too are interested in realising a profit. A potential site for several homes can be worth far more, proportionally, than a plot with room for just one or none at all. | ||
Freehold Interest:We will purchase the freehold interest of your property releasing cash whilst you remain at the property. |
We buy all types of land and properties. We will make you an immediate offer, simply click here and complete our enquiry form.
