Sale and Purchase of Land
Sale and Purchase of Land
There are many reasons why people choose to sell or purchase additional land, from selling land to make a profit on space that is not used, to purchasing a site to protect it from future development.
Whilst the sale and purchase of land is very similar to the process of conveyancing it can present its own unique challenges, so instructing a legal expert who specialises in the sale and purchase of land can be invaluable.
Whether you’re looking to sell land to your neighbour from your garden or buy a large site for development the commercial property team at Rotheras have the experience and expertise to help you.

We work with you to understand the nature of your transaction and provide you with advice tailored to your situation.
We can assist with the sale or purchase of farmland, land for development, paddocks, amenity land for your existing property, investment land or woodland.
If you are buying land for development, we will undertake all standard searches and any additional specific searches on your behalf.
We can advise buyers on various planning issues or covenants/restrictions that could affect how you use the land.

Chris Powell at Rotheras was recommended to us by a trusted associate within the Transport Industry; without doubt we wouldn’t have had the excellent outcome we did without his and his team’s involvement. The level of professionalism, expert advice and assistance was faultless; we felt reassured and well informed throughout the whole process. It was a pleasure to do business with him and would highly recommend his services!

The team at Rotheras, and Mr Powell in particular, have provided us with an outstanding service. We are extremely grateful for the help and support they gave us in dealing with issues relating to our transport operations and our goods vehicle operators licence. Mr Powell was professional, knowledgable, efficient and effective. He quickly understood our business and the problem we had. He responded with sensible advice and acted quickly on our behalf to resolve the matter. I cannot thank him enough for his help and I would recommend Mr Powell, and the Rotheras team, without hesitation. I am extremely grateful for the help they gave us.

I would highly recommend James Briggs, solicitor at Rotheras. He has been extremely helpful, patient and thorough whilst helping me with affairs following the death of my husband. Even during lockdown (covid) he maintained communication and kept me informed of what was happening. He successfully achieved the outcome I needed and I would not hesitate to recommend him.

We are in the middle of launching our own packaging agency and contacted Rotheras for some professional legal advice with regards to contracts. After an initial call with Billy, he made it clear what we needed and asked plenty of questions to understand what it was we needed. He was very responsive to our questions, whether it be over the phone or via emails and made the process really simple. We had little experience in this area so it was fantastic to work with Billy, who explained everything concisely. We were also really pleased with the quick turnaround and great value offered. Would thoroughly recommend working with Rotheras.
