  • The £28 million sale of part of a farm, pursuant to a Promotion Agreement, to a national housebuilder. The transaction naturally involved dealing with the reservation of adequate future developments rights for our client’s retained land and some overage provisions;
  • The £9 million sale of part of a client’s farm, pursuant to two Option Agreements. The transaction involved 5 landowners, the promoters and the buyers, with all the challenges involved with so many parties with complex elements such as an overage, deferred payments, security for such deferred payments, a continuing option agreement on the retained land and an option to call for future easements for the benefit of our client’s retained land;
  • The £4.5 million purchase of a farm with the benefit of planning permission.
