How councils in Powys look at it
Across Powys, the gardens that suit a joint venture best are usually those where a finished home is likely to be in demand and the build is straightforward: decent access from the road, no major tree or drainage constraints, and enough room for the new home and the existing house to keep proper gardens. Where a plot is harder, with a long narrow drive or a sloping site, the extra cost and risk can make a sale or an option more sensible.
Planning authorities covering Powys include Powys County Council, Bannau Brycheiniog National Park Authority.
How it works
Free plot appraisal
We look at your title plan, access, neighbouring homes and the council’s planning policies, then talk through what might be built and whether a joint venture or a simpler sale suits you better.
Choose the structure
We explain the options side by side: a share of sale proceeds, a share of profit, a home back for your land, or a land payment plus a share. You choose what fits your plans and appetite for risk.
Heads of terms
The key terms go in writing: who funds what, your share or the home you receive, how your land is protected, deadlines, open-book reporting and what happens if planning is refused or the build stalls.
Development agreement
Your own solicitor and ours turn the heads of terms into a binding agreement. Your solicitor advises on the security that fits, such as the land staying in your name until a set stage or a legal charge.
Planning and build
We fund and manage the planning application, Building Regulations approval and construction, reporting costs and progress to you at agreed points. The council decides the application, and building control checks the work.
Sale or handover
The new homes are sold and the proceeds are split as agreed through the solicitors, or your new home is handed over with its warranty, title and certificates in place.

Questions about garden plot joint venture in Powys
Do you offer garden plot joint ventures in Powys?
Yes. We cover Powys as part of our coverage of England and Wales. A joint venture is one of several routes we offer, and the free appraisal shows whether it suits your plot and plans, or whether a sale or option would be simpler.
Is a joint venture better than selling my garden in Powys?
Not always. A joint venture can give you a share of what’s built, but it takes longer and your return isn’t fixed. A sale gives certainty sooner. We set the options out side by side after the free appraisal so you can choose with the facts in front of you.
Which councils decide joint venture schemes in Powys?
The council where the land sits decides; the authorities serving Powys include Powys County Council and Bannau Brycheiniog National Park Authority. It applies Planning Policy Wales (PPW) together with its own LDP. We check the relevant policies and nearby decisions before proposing any joint venture terms.
Do you buy garden plots in Powys?
Yes. We buy suitable garden plots across Powys directly, with or without planning permission, always subject to survey, title and contract. We also offer sales subject to planning, options, planning promotion and joint ventures. Which route fits depends on your plot, so the starting point is a free, no-obligation appraisal.
