Who Are We?

Approved Planning is a land consultancy focused on getting landowners the best outcome – whether that’s a fast cash sale or a planning-led value increase.

We’re not estate agents.
We’re not generic property buyers.
We’re land specialists – offering tailored advice with no upfront fees.


Before You Sell Land for Cash – Talk to Us First

Most websites offering fast property sales focus on houses, not land. Few buy land without planning permission. That’s where we’re different.

We focus on land-only deals, including:

  • Back gardens with expired planning permission.
  • Paddocks, fields, or corner plots.
  • Land near motorways or railways.

We understand your land and can help you sell it fast or unlock more value first. Request a free appraisal here or call 0800 6122100


Option 1: Sell Your Land for Cash – Fast

If speed is your priority, our trusted buyers can:

  • Make decisions in 24–48 hours.
  • Complete in as little as 7 days (subject to contract).
  • Buy land with or without planning permission.
  • Offer upfront cash deposits in select cases.
  • Cover all legal and admin costs.

This is ideal if you:

  • Need funds urgently (e.g., care fees, debt, probate).
  • Want to avoid delays from agents or architects.
  • Seek a guaranteed, hassle-free sale.
