Although there is always a lot of land available for purchase, most of it might be in some far-flung area or it might not have the approval of the planning authorities. It might not always be easy to find building land just the way you might want it. The rise in property rates over the last decade has led to a large number of people opting to build their homes on their own. As a result, land is getting to be scarce when clubbed with the normal residential developments. So rather than go in for building land, it would be wiser to go in for building plots.
Building plots Kent are comparatively smaller pieces of land obtained by dividing a big garden or compound. Permission has been obtained from the planning authorities for a pre-determined number of properties. These house building plots are normally sold one plot at a time and although they are smaller in size as compared to the building land, they tend to be cheaper and are normally centrally located.
It is extremely important that one of the building plots that you purchase already has a planning permission or the probability of it getting the approval is very high. It would be futile to spend several thousands of pounds on a building plots Kent only to find that you will never be able to build your home there. Sometimes building plots come with what is called outline planning permission if there is a house or building close by. Talk to your estate agent or to the planning authorities to make sure that you will be able to build your house there when you choose to.
The building plots Kent that you shortlist should be in the perfect location where you have access to it by road, besides easy access to electricity, gas, phone and water. If you don't take care to check out all this stuff in the beginning, you can end up buying one of the building plots Kent which could cause you a lot of pain once you start on your project and selling a bad piece of land will not be easy either.
For good advice you can go one the Net or else speak to some estate agents. Most plots in the UK are sold be estate agents though not all of them might deal in building plots. Visit some agents in your locality and register wit them giving details of the building plots Kent that you would be interested in. Often plots are sold at auctions by the real estate agents; so they will keep you informed if you register with them. Or check out the advertisements in property magazines or your local newspapers.
Self-build companies also have a list of building plots along with the agents' names. If you have decided to purchase your home from a self-build company, they will be very eager to help you in your search for the right plot. Real estate developers or builders too might have a plot of land for sale on which they would rather not build. But all said and done, the Net is your best bet. You even get an email in your box when building plots Kent as per your specification become available.
