The Welsh system, as it applies in Deeside
Permission in Principle is not available in Wales, so the usual first step for land near Deeside is an outline planning application, with reserved matters to follow, or a full application. Councils allocate housing sites through their Local Development Plan, and landowners can put land forward as a candidate site when a plan is prepared or reviewed. If your land is not allocated, an option or promotion agreement lets a partner take on the cost of promoting it.
In Wales, Land Transaction Tax replaces Stamp Duty Land Tax, and security is registered at HM Land Registry. Appraisals must allow for Section 106 obligations, the Community Infrastructure Levy where adopted and approval of sustainable drainage by the SuDS approving body. The Development Bank of Wales, owned by the Welsh Government, offers property development lending among its services.
| Who decides applications | The local planning authority, usually the county or county borough council (or a national park authority) |
|---|---|

| Land registration | HM Land Registry |
| Developer contributions | Section 106 planning obligations, plus the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) where the council has adopted it |
Your questions answered for Deeside
What information do funding partners usually review?
Partners usually review the site title, the planning position, the scheme appraisal, the build programme, the construction approach, the plan for selling or letting the homes and the developer's background. Each carries out its own due diligence, often with valuers, monitoring surveyors and solicitors. We share site-specific information under confidentiality where appropriate.
Is anything on this site regulated investment advice?
No. Land to Homes does not give investment, financial, tax or legal advice, and nothing on this site is an offer, invitation or recommendation to invest. Funding discussions take place privately with lenders and professional parties, who rely on their own advisers and due diligence. If you are unsure about any investment, speak to an independent regulated adviser.
Do public bodies fund housing development?
Public bodies support housing delivery in each nation, for example Homes England, the government's housing and regeneration agency in England, and the Development Bank of Wales, which offers property development lending. Grant for affordable housing usually goes to councils and registered providers rather than developers. We describe these bodies for context; each has its own criteria.
How is forward purchase different from forward funding?
With forward funding, the investor pays for the land and construction as the scheme is built. With forward purchase, the investor commits to buy the completed homes, but the developer arranges construction finance in the meantime. The choice affects risk, cost and timing for both parties, so each takes its own advice before agreeing terms.
