Overage and uplift
With the growing need for housing, an overage agreement is an excellent way of selling land at its current value but reserving a right in the future to receive an uplift in value if the land obtains planning permission and is developed.
We have detailed knowledge and expertise in drafting and negotiating these complex agreements working with both landowners (sellers) and buyers.
Our knowledgeable lawyers work hard to ensure your rights and interest are protected for the duration of the overage or uplift agreement. We have worked on agreements spanning anything from 5 years to 80 years.
