Site Acquisition.

Every successful project starts with the right site. Whether you’re planning a home extension, a commercial development, or a multi-unit scheme, understanding a site’s true potential — and its limitations — before you commit is essential.

Our Site Acquisition service provides clear, practical advice on feasibility and development potential. By assessing opportunities up front, we help you make confident decisions, reduce risk, and unlock long-term value.

Clarity Before You Commit

Investing in a site without knowing what you can build is risky. We carry out feasibility studies and development potential assessments that give you the full picture before purchase. This includes:

  • Planning Potential – identifying what’s achievable within current policies and where additional value could be unlocked.

  • Design Options – testing different layouts and approaches to see what makes best use of the site.

  • Constraints & Risks – highlighting issues like access, services, heritage, or environmental restrictions early on.

  • Financial Implications – showing how design and planning outcomes translate into real-world value.

This early clarity protects your investment and ensures you only commit to sites with genuine potential.

Experience Across All Scales

We’ve assessed sites ranging from single residential plots through to complex commercial developments, including specialist projects like drive-thru facilities. This breadth of experience means we can quickly spot what makes a site viable — and what might hold it back.

Because everything we design is built, our advice is grounded in practical experience, not speculation. We know how decisions made at acquisition affect the success of a project years later.

Adding Value Through Insight

Our assessments do more than prevent problems — they actively add value by:

  • Identifying Opportunities: spotting hidden potential in underused or overlooked sites.

  • Maximising Yield: advising on how to achieve the greatest return within planning and design constraints.

  • Avoiding Costly Mistakes: steering you away from sites with limited potential or high hidden risks.

  • Informing Negotiations: giving you evidence-based insights to support stronger purchase decisions.

This means you can approach site acquisition not with caution, but with confidence.
