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.
Why instruct Rotheras on the Sale and Purchase of Land?
We act for developers, landowners, house builders and house providers.
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.
If you are selling land, we can help you to create a contract pack and identify issues with your legal title early in the process.

This was my first experience using a solicitor, something I felt quite daunted about. Rotheras (Greg and Petra) put me at ease and were very helpful.

Last year I experienced a car accident, as a front seat passenger. I put forward a personal injury claim with Rotheras. From start to finish, my claim has been dealt with efficiently and professionally, and I have always felt my best interests were considered. All communications were made via letter or email to inform me of all further updates. My claim has now come to an end and I am very happy with the overall outcome. I would recommend Rotheras for their service.

We cannot recommend Chris Powell of Rotheras more highly. Mr Powell demonstrated the upmost professionalism with a high level of knowledge of the area for which he was representing us. Anyone needing representation/advice regarding the area of haulage will find that Chris Powell and Rotheras are the best choice.
