Lands Improvement specialises in the purchase and promotion and delivery of large-scale development projects throughout the UK. We deliver serviced development parcels to housebuilding and commercial developers in accordance with Development Frameworks, Masterplans and Design Guides agreed through the planning process. This helps to ensure the creation of sustainable, well-designed environments and communities.

Our projects include a range of mixed use, brownfield regeneration projects along with strategic greenfield sustainable urban extensions.

Our approach
The key to realising development potential is to adopt a proactive and committed approach to the promotion of complex projects. Lands Improvement seeks to build long term partnerships with local authorities, delivery agencies and communities.

Expert professional teams are managed by our in-house planning, environmental, engineering and development experts to help manage the considerable risks of the development process. Early commitment to environmental and technical work ensures that a vision is established and delivered.

Lands Improvement works with a range of landowners including farmers and major public companies to assess the potential of individual sites and to understand the best way to promote the land through the complex planning process. Technical issues need to be evaluated and costed at an early stage, particularly on the larger brownfield sites to ensure that these factors are reflected in the cost of bringing the land forward for development. This means that informed discussions can be held with local authorities at an early stage in the promotion process to establish a shared and deliverable vision.

Our sound financial position enables us to adopt a flexible approach to partnership with landowners. We are happy to consider the outright purchase of development opportunities but will also consider option arrangements, joint venture agreements or land promotion agreements.
