How to find a plot

Self Builders usually agree that finding land can be the hardest part of the whole self-build process. Obviously, it's more difficult to find your plot in Hertfordshire than it is in the Highlands but wherever you are looking your search will be a lot easier and more convenient with the aid of the Internet.

Plotsearch the national building plot register

That's why Design & Materials have teamed up with PlotBrowser, PlotFinder and PlotSearch, the largest and most accurate databases for land in the UK. This online National Building Plot Register is updated daily by over 5,000 sources of information on land and renovations, ranging from estate agents and government bodies to private vendors. It enables you to browse through thousands of building plots and renovations from the comfort of your PC.

Updated on a five day cycle, the databases are unique in excluding greenbelt, agricultural and so called 'investment' land. All land on PlotBrowser, PlotFinder and PlotSearch is verified to be genuine residential land either with, or suitable for, outline planning permission.

When you do see your perfect location be prepared to move fast. Ideally, have your finances in place. Prime building spots are often snapped up very quickly but with PlotBrowser, PlotFinder and PlotSearch at your fingertips you will be in a position to act instantly and hopefully secure that dream spot!

Knock it down and start again - Replacement dwellings

In some parts of the country good building plots are very difficult to find. As a result more and more of our clients are buying an existing property, demolishing it and building a new house on the same plot. Have a look around your area you may see something suitable. Your existing property may even be worth consideration. Finding your 'plot' this way has the added advantage that you do not have to uproot your family to achieve your dream.
