What to know in Dyfed
Drainage and flood risk are easy to overlook on a garden plot. Before buying anywhere in Dyfed, we check the flood maps, the route of any public sewer and how rainwater from a new roof and drive would be dealt with. For the new home, that means approval from the SuDS Approval Body (SAB) before building starts. A sewer running under the lawn may need a build-over agreement with the water company, which can move where the house sits. None of this usually stops a sale, but it shapes what we can offer, so it belongs in the appraisal rather than being discovered later.
Planning authorities covering Dyfed include Carmarthenshire County Council, Ceredigion County Council, Pembrokeshire County Council, Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority.
How it works
Free plot appraisal
Tell us about your garden. We check the title plan, access, local policy and planning history from our desk, then talk it through with you. If it looks viable, we arrange a site visit, with no cost and no obligation.
Written offer and heads of terms
We put our offer in writing, subject to survey, title and contract. Heads of terms then record the plot boundary, the price, access rights, who pays which costs and the rough timetable for each stage.
Solicitors and lender
Your solicitor prepares the transfer of part and asks your mortgage lender to release the plot. Ours checks the title, covenants, rights of way and searches, while surveys of trees, ground and drainage run alongside.
Exchange and completion
Once both sides are satisfied, contracts are exchanged and a completion date is fixed. On completion the money passes through the solicitors and HM Land Registry registers the plot under a new title of its own.
After the sale
Any boundary fence or access works agreed in the transfer are carried out as set out. If the plot still needs planning, we apply as the new owner, and you can see and comment on the plans like any other neighbour.

Questions about sell your garden plot in Dyfed
How long does it take to sell a garden plot in Dyfed?
Most of the time goes on the legal work. Once an offer is agreed, solicitors usually need a few months to deal with the transfer of part, the lender’s release and the title checks. Covenants, unclear boundaries or a disputed access are what usually stretch it.
Do you buy garden plots in Dyfed?
Yes. We buy suitable garden plots in Dyfed, with or without planning, subject to survey, title and contract. That includes long back gardens, side gardens, corner plots and land behind houses, as long as there’s a workable way in. The first step is a free garden plot appraisal.
Is there tax to pay on selling part of a garden in Dyfed?
There can be. Private Residence Relief can cover part of a garden sold while you still own and live in the house, within a permitted area. Selling after you’ve moved out, or developing the plot yourself, can change that. It depends on your circumstances, so take advice from a tax adviser before agreeing a sale.
Do you buy garden plots in Dyfed?
Yes. We buy suitable garden plots across Dyfed 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.
