   • Carry out thorough inspections. Viable plots are precious commodities, and much like hunting for the perfect new house, it can take time to find the good ones.
   • Does the plot have planning? A valid planning consent is central to the value of any piece of land. All the stakeholders involved in your project (principally your lender, their surveyors and then your legal advisers) will want this to be transparent and absolute.
