Read on to find out how we could work together.

Joint ventures for landowners

Share the load of your development by pooling your resources with us. You bring the land and we bring the architecture and construction expertise.

If you have some land you wish to develop then we would love to partner with you on this. And there are many ways we could do this; find out more with this guide.

Together we can develop your ideas for the project. We'll lend you our expertise in design to create architectural plans that meet your vision.

Then we will manage firstly the planning approval process, followed by the builders tender and the build itself until signed-off by building control.

Financing

If you are a landowner and need some help raising the funds to develop your land, we can help you arrange financing for your development project.

Our specialist financial backers are always keen to take on new development projects that hold great potential, both in Sevenoaks and the wider area of Kent and the South-East.

Selling your land

If you have some land you think could work well for a development, but do not want to be involved in the project itself then we are always looking for property to purchase subject to planning permission.

Selling your land to us means that you will have your say in the development process if you wish. If you are still living on part of the land we'll consider your house and the impact the proposed development will have on you, while ensuring that you're making a market value sum for your sale.

Joint ventures for financiers

If you have funds you would like to invest in property development, then we are able to help you find the perfect plot of land to develop your idea on, as well as help with the development process.

Recent Project Example

These plans show a recent venture that we have gained planning permission for. We will demolish the existing single residence and, in its place, build two four-bedroom houses. We have seen this project through from concept and initial consultation, to planning and building control approval, and then finally to build.

Frequently Asked Questions From Landowners

As you probably expect, there are many varying factors in how much the land you have to develop is valued at. Location and suitability for different types development are the two biggest variables. The best thing to do is contact us to arrange a free consultation, where we will be able to give you a better idea.

As a family-run firm we are highly agile when it comes to decision-making and communication. Not only are we able to move quickly when working with you, but we are experts of the construction industry. Our founder, David, has worked across many the entire construction process before founding Sevenoaks Plans and Development. Plus we have 4 RIBA arhcitects to offer their expertise on your project.

There are 3 main types of joint venture that we can work with you on:
  • You have land and funds, and need industry expertise to develop the land.
  • You have land, but need funding and expertise.
  • You have funds you are looking to invest in property development, and need someone to find and manage a project.

The planning process can be complex when planning to build on previously undeveloped land. Working closely with the local planning department from the outset of the project helps ensure that planning permission can be achieved without too many bumps alon the way. Here at Sevenoaks Plans we have excellent relationships with all local planning and building control teams, and we are proud members of LABC (Local Authority Building Control).

Factors such as size, topograhy, the surrounding area, conservation considerations, and environmental features have a huge impact on whether your land can be developed and what it can be developed into. We will be able to advise you on your options during our consultation.

Tax is an important consideration for all development opportunities and we will work with you to create the most advantageous tax treatment for all parties concerned. However, as it is so important, we advise you to seek advice from an independent tax advisor. We can recommend some local companies if you wish. They will also be able to advise on the implications of VAT.
