UK Land Investment Guide


As with most investment opportunities timing is important. With land investment the sooner you decide if it's right for you the better. We have created this guide to help you make your decision so download your free copy and let us know if you have any questions.


Introduction to the guide


The UK is one of the most densely populated countries on Earth and is the second most densely populated in Europe after Holland. Demand for housing continues to increase, year on year and there appears to be no end in sight. This has meant house prices continue to rise as demand outstrips supply.

The Government forecast in 2006 that the number of UK households in England would increase from 20.9 million in 2003 to 25.7 million by 2026.

This huge increase is fueled by a number of factors including:

  • We are all living longer
  • There is a rising divorce rate
  • More and more people prefer single occupancy houses
  • Mass immigration
  • Old and poor quality housing stock
  • Social aspirations

This massive home building programme puts pressure on developers to find available land either by re-developing existing sites, known as brownfield developments or by using new land such as redundant farmland.

This leads to base land price increases as well as increases in the price of land with planning permission as illustrated in the diagram below:

Land prices have shown steady growth for many decades and those plots which are strategically located in the most desirable areas and receive planning permission for development have seen huge growth.
