Promotion Agreements

Expert Legal Guidance for Promotion Agreements

Promotion agreements are an essential tool for landowners looking to maximise the value of their land by partnering with experienced developers. At Lawson West Solicitors, we provide comprehensive legal advice and support to both landowners and developers involved in promotion agreements, ensuring that interests are protected and the process is streamlined for successful development outcomes.

What Are Promotion Agreements?

Promotion agreements are contracts between a landowner and a developer or promoter who agrees to seek planning permission and market the land for sale. Under these agreements, the promoter may undertake the risk and cost of securing planning consent, with the aim of selling the land for a higher value. In return, the promoter receives a fee, often a percentage of the sale proceeds, once the land is sold.
