We turn overlooked land into high-value assets.
A specialist strategic land and planning practice. For thirty years we have read UK land with a precision the market misses — and turned that judgement into value for landowners, developers and estate trustees.
Three decades of land judgement, applied to your site.
Strategic Land Promotion
From first conversation to completed sale, structured around your exit. We promote land through the plan-making and consent process to realise its full development value.
Planning & Land Strategy
Five-Year Housing Land Supply, viability assessment and planning advisory under the NPPF. Strategic counsel, not procedural box-ticking.
The LVA Method™
Our proprietary Land Value Accelerator. An eight-step methodology that typically identifies 12–18%+ more value than a standard appraisal.
See the method →A disciplined read of value others overlook.
Land Value Accelerator is our trademarked eight-step methodology. It interrogates a site against a thirty-two-type pricing matrix to surface value that conventional appraisals leave on the table — typically 12–18%+ more.
Site & title
Establish the asset: boundaries, tenure, constraints, opportunity.
Policy context
Local plan stage, allocation prospects, NPPF position.
Pricing matrix
Apply the 32-type matrix to classify and benchmark value.
Scenario modelling
Three-case appraisal — conservative, likely, stretch.
Viability test
Stress the numbers against deliverability and S106.
Value mapping
Locate the uplift — by parcel, phase and permission.
Strategy
The route to crystallise value, aligned to your exit.
Delivery
The appraisal, the narrative, and the plan to act on it.
Real value, found in real ground.
Client identities are held in confidence. The numbers are not.
Value uplift identified within existing permissions on a single site — no new consent required.
Disposal opportunity surfaced across a strategic land portfolio held by an institutional landowner.
Independent LVA identified materially more value than the developer's own assessment.
Trusted where it counts.
Thorough, carefully researched and presented with authority — central to setting out a realistic five-year housing land supply.
Particularly talented at spotting development angles that add significant value. Anyone developing their land would find his counsel enlightening.
They take a complex, confusing subject and apply a structure that delivers clarity — innovative, and forensic in their investigations.
Land is a relationship, not a transaction.
Intelligent Land was founded on three decades in strategic land, estate agency and development — including a pedigree with Taylor Woodrow. We are deliberately small, senior and selective: you work with the people who do the thinking.

What is the LVA Method™?
The Land Value Accelerator is our proprietary, trademarked eight-step methodology. It assesses a site against a thirty-two-type pricing matrix to identify value that standard appraisals miss — typically 12–18%+ more.
How long have you been advising on strategic land?
Thirty years across strategic land, estate agency and property development, including a pedigree with Taylor Woodrow.
Do you work with my existing planning consultant?
Often, yes. Securing permission is the starting point, not the finish line — our role is to make sure the value behind that permission is fully realised.
Will you tell me if there's no value to add?
Always, and straight away. A clear "no" early is worth more than a hopeful engagement that goes nowhere.
Ready to find out what your land is really worth?
A confidential conversation with a partner — not a sales call.
If we don't think we can add value, we'll tell you straight away.
