For Farmers and Landowners
MFE focuses on making sure you get as much as possible out of your land, where planning comes together with land and valuation.
We can help you with:
- Option agreements
- Conditional contracts and land promotion agreements
- Re-evaluation and exercise of land agreements
These agreements are all prepared by developers for their own benefit and developers have a lot of experience in dealing with these for their own advantage. Often the landowner/farmer misses out on opportunities or is dealt a poor hand overall.
An expert look at proposals can literally sometimes save the land owner millions of pounds! Whilst early is best there can even be last minute changes at the time of exercise of these agreements to save money, and potentially reduce tax liabilities. So, it is never too late!
For Developers
MFE focuses on making sure you get as much as possible out of your sites, where planning comes together with land and valuation.
We can help you with:
- Negotiation of option agreements
- Conditional contracts and land promotion agreements
- Re-evaluation and exercise of land agreements
- Preparation for arbitration or independent expert reviews
We ensure the exercise of your land purchase is optimised in the context of market conditions, taking into consideration both timings and cash flow.
We can help you throughout the entire strategic land purchase process. Starting with the initial option agreement right through to its exercise and valuation or on specific tranches as necessary.
