The skills, expertise and experience to ensure a satisfactory outcome

As it’s main focus, Lone Star Land is constantly seeking development opportunities throughout the UK, predominantly with a residential bias, although if the circumstances are right we will also consider mixed use and commercial sites.

With Private Equity funding readily available there is no requirement for bank funding. Sites can be acquired either unconditionally or on a conditional contract/option agreement basis. The landowner’s requirements and circumstances will dictate the type of agreement.

The considerable promotional costs involved in obtaining planning permission are borne by Lone Star Land. Our expertise and close contacts with best in class’ planning consultants, architects, highway consultants, arboriculturalists, ecologists, surveyors and solicitors, to name but a few, enable us to advance swiftly through this complex and difficult process, to bring sites to an early realisation.

Lone Star Land specialise in all aspects of residential land and development.

Our consultancy and management service covers all aspects of property development: from identification and appraisals, through the site acquisition process, planning, planning gain negotiations, site layout, design options and the development process. Equally, we can project-manage the entire process, from the inception pre-planning stage through to final sales and completion.

Behind each element of the development process lies a myriad of potential issues that can influence the outcome of the process. These issues need to be fully understood and appreciated inline with the Client’s requirements so that the strategy will ensure that a satisfactory outcome is achieved.

The development and planning process is far from straightforward and many “curve balls” are thrown along the way. How one anticipates these hurdles and advises the Client on the most appropriate way forward is key to a successful mandate.

To this end, and acutely aware of the potential pitfalls resulting from the constant legislative changes, Lone Star Land makes sure it keeps its finger on the pulse of the property industry.

Planning Consents should add real value to land. Meanwhile planning delays, refusals and appeals all add significant cost and time to the process.

The Planning system is complex and knowing your way through the potential minefield is invaluable to avoid the numerous pitfalls along the way.

Lone Star Land appoint the best possible consultant team to engage in the planning process. Each set of circumstances demands its own strategy to be adopted and needs to retain sufficient flexibility through the process.
