Conditional Contracts

A conditional contract requires complex drafting as it will bind a purchaser to acquire the site subject to obtaining a planning consent. Our experienced solicitors will ensure that the purchase will only proceed if a planning consent suitable for the developer is obtained.

We can advise you whether or not a conditional agreement is appropriate to your proposed development. This is perhaps equally as important to the agreement itself because if a different agreement is more appropriate, your development may not progress in the way most advantageous to you.

You may also require a conditional contract if you are waiting for information from a local authority, or some other consent is required.

Whether you are buying or selling a property for development, we can negotiate and draft a conditional contract for sale and advise you of the implications. Many possible eventualities and circumstances need to be accounted for.

As a conditional contract will bind a purchaser if planning consent is granted it is important that we undertake all necessary searches and enquiries prior to exchange of agreements.
