Richard & Sue said: “We had absolutely no where to go, no options at all. We heard about Lingfield Homes Ltd via another landowner and where highly recommended. Within no time, they had the vision, then a design and a planning application was submitted and paid for and within 18 months we had a planning permission. A sale was completed within six months and Lingfield sorted all the Legals and paid for everything, achieving a land value far in excess what we ever imagined. Highly recommend them. We will be forever grateful to Lingfield for their drive & commitment, which realised our long-held hopes to sell the inherited property.”

Susan said: “We heard about Lingfield via another Land Owner and we approached them about our land not knowing what to expect. They clearly explained the Planning Policy behind the Local Authority and then submitted our land for inclusion within the short-term housing needs strategy and have subsequently completed a Pre-Planning Application in readiness for a full planning application. We had no idea of the potential of our agricultural land, never mind achieving planning.”
