  • Full Assessment of your land highlighting its unique characteristics and considering factors such as access, accessibility and surrounding amenities whilst reflecting on current planning policy.
  • An indictive site layout.
  • Viability statement detailing the deliverability of the site and where necessary completion of a full Development Viability Model.
