What We Do
Our experienced team guides landowners and agents through the very complex and costly process of disposing of large strategic parcels of land to developers in the quickest timeframe and best manner possible. Landowners can be:
- Farmers
- Beneficiaries
- Charities
- Religious institutions
- Trusts
- Local Council and Government estate departments
Reasons for selling land include retirement, change of lifestyle and to release funds.
We also work with land agents to help identify, source and build our portfolio.
Our projects are located throughout the country, ranging from residential schemes of around 100 dwellings to large, mixed use urban extensions.
New Richborough name and Commercial Division
Due to an increasing number of commercial and mixed-use sites in our portfolio, in 2023 we launched our Commercial Land Promotion division, and the new Richborough brand was born, replacing our original name Richborough Estates.
