What you get in Pwllheli
Services and drainage
We check where sewers, water mains and power run, and flag where limited capacity, long connections or drainage design could add significant cost to a scheme.
No obligation, no cost
The appraisal is free and there is no obligation to go any further. If your land is unlikely to suit new homes, we will tell you plainly and explain why.
Indicative scheme
Where prospects look reasonable, we outline what might fit as a broad indication rather than a design, so you can understand the likely scale and form of development.
Planning policy reviewed
We read the adopted development plan, its policies map and any emerging plan, and note how your land is treated: within a settlement boundary, allocated, protected or open countryside.
The Welsh system, as it applies in Pwllheli
In Wales, planning applications for new homes in Pwllheli are decided by the local planning authority, usually the county or county borough council, using its Local Development Plan, Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040. Landowners can sell outright or through an option or promotion agreement in which the planning work is funded for them and recovered only from a sale with planning. Land to Homes offers a free site appraisal and covers your reasonable legal fees on option and promotion agreements.
In Wales, we check the Local Development Plan, the Flood Map for Planning from Natural Resources Wales used under Technical Advice Note 15, listed buildings and scheduled monuments recorded by Cadw, and whether the site lies in a river catchment with phosphate limits. Drainage is assessed early, since most schemes need SuDS approving body approval.

Your questions answered for Pwllheli
What information do I need to provide for a site appraisal?
A postcode or rough boundary is enough to start. It helps to add the title number if you know it, the current use, any planning history, any tenancies, and known issues such as drainage or access disputes. Photos and existing reports are useful but not essential.
Can I ask for an appraisal on land I am selling for someone else?
Yes, if you are acting for the owner, for example as an executor, trustee, attorney or land agent. We will need to understand your authority before discussing terms. If you are a buyer looking at land, a planning consultant or surveyor can advise you independently.
Will the appraisal tell me what my land is worth?
Not as a formal valuation. We explain the factors that drive development land value for your site, such as the likely number of homes, local sale values and build costs. If we make an offer later, it will be in writing. For a formal valuation, instruct a chartered surveyor.
Will you contact my neighbours or the council?
Not without your agreement. We use what you share to assess your land and discuss it with you. Our desktop review relies on published records and mapping. If talking to a neighbour or the council would help, we will ask you first and explain why.
Do you buy land in Pwllheli?
Yes. Land to Homes looks at land in Pwllheli and elsewhere in Gwynedd, including Bangor (Gwynedd), Caernarfon and Holyhead. Every enquiry starts with a free site appraisal, and on option and promotion agreements we pay your reasonable legal fees.
