What is the demand for small parcels like?

If you are selling a small plot of land in Kent supply is limited and so interest should be strong. Commuter districts in north west Kent see demand for paddocks from equestrian buyers and for amenity use. In rural Kent a smallholder or hobby farmer may be interested in your land, or it may suit a leisure or tourism use. Our initial assessment can help establish potential and the most appropriate sale route.

Could my land be suitable for housebuilding?

Road/rail links and the planning position will determine both development potential and value. Actual travel time into London and major Kent towns is more of a factor than distance. A thorough assessment can help ascertain what level of interest there is likely to be from residential developers.

Kent lives up to its Garden of England reputation. The majority of the county is agricultural, mainly arable, with particular strengths in commercial fruit growing and viniculture. This is not the only consideration when selling your land in Kent, however. Areas including Sevenoaks and Royal Tunbridge Wells are within the prime London commuter belt. Some districts, such as Gravesend and Medway, attract large scale residential, commercial and light industrial development.

The multi-faceted market makes choosing the most appropriate route critical when selling land in Kent. Start by defining what type of land or plot you own: If you are selling land in a Kent town firstly investigate its development potential. Land in rural or coastal Kent may suit an agricultural, smallholding, recreational or tourism use. An independent assessment via LandSale can help you choose the most appropriate specialist agency or other route to a sale.

What Shapes Demand for Kent Land

Connectivity. Well connected locations, such as the A2/M2 and M20 corridors from Dartford, down to Maidstone, Ashford and Dover, may appeal to developers; elsewhere demand is more agricultural
Geology. If you are selling an agricultural plot Kent has a number of distinct soil types; this may shape demand
Planning. Selling land in the Kent Downs National Landscape and other environmentally sensitive areas involves additional planning considerations
