What Is Strategic Land?

Investing Today for Tomorrow’s Homes

Strategically Located

Low Entry Cost

Potential High Returns

At Plotted, we specialise in strategic land: Land carefully selected with potential for future development. Plotted land is chosen for its location, merits and likely suitability for future building. Once strategic land is marked for development, it can be worth up to 10x your investment. So buying the right land, at the right time, can be exciting.

Strategic land refers to land that:

Does not currently have planning permission but is well-positioned for future development;

Is identified based on its proximity to growing towns, local planning trends, and environmental suitability;

Represents an opportunity to purchase land at a fraction of the cost of development-ready land.

By investing in strategic land, you’re entering the market at an earlier stage, securing land at lower costs, and positioning yourself for significant long-term gains.

Planning Permission: The Key to Profit

Every plot of land requires planning permission in order to build housing. While strategic land may not yet have planning permission for residential housing, its proximity to growth and future potential make it a valuable long-term investment.

Farmland

Low initial land value due to limited use, this is the starting point when it has the lowest use value.

Strategic Land

Land gains "hope value" as it becomes a candidate for planning permission. This is the time Plotted like to buy; in anticipation of big price increases.

Development Land

Value spikes when included in local planning frameworks. At this point the land is formally identified as suitable for development.

Building Land

Further increases occur when full planning permission is granted. As land is now "oven ready", building can start almost immediately.

“I’m here to build something for the long-term. Anything else is a distraction.”
